OK fixed it. There are two superscript boxes and the one on the right S: showing NONE has a drop down list and if superscript is accepted all the selected characters go to superscript.
-
So no solution unless somebody knows a font with all the superscript numerals available.

diacritics
Roger terry replied to Roger terry's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Affinity on Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Thanks, to be honest, I am old and FontForge looks too complex for me. I am stuck on one diacritic mark, (attached example) and in the book I am working on, it occurs a lot. It also occurs after the A the other way around, i.e. mirrored -
I am digitising a book with arabic names but I cannot find the correct diacritic. The character I need is a curve , open to the left, at the start of a letter and open to the right when used after a letter. The are a bit like single quotation marks but without the blobs on the bottom. Any ideas? Is it possible to create a character Designer and export it as a character? any ideas gratefully received.

Yes it would. What you suggested works perfectly if the text extends to the full width of the frame, but if is does not, the line no longer functions as I need. I need a quick workaround, adding white text might be the best quick fix.

seems to happen irrespective of text frame size

Thanks for your reply. I just did it but similar result. I created a paragraph style LLL. When I started a new text box I got the LLL style immediately but with the line extending away from the text, as you can see in this screen shot. The parameters are identical.
-
I want to add a line just above the text. I set up the parameters and add a paragraph style. Perfect However, the next time is select this paragraph style the line is in a different place. Instead of being above the text and limited to the required width, it runs the whole length of the text. In fact it is impossible to recreate the paragraph style. I think that saving the paragraph decoration under paragraph style is not working para decoration.afpub

The answer seems to be no, I have tried but can't repeat it. I think it had something to do with the way the table was created, ie the way that cells were merged. I started again and got over the problem.

I don't know if this is a bug but when I try to delete the last column in this table it splits the table into two. Is it a bug?? See video Split table.mp4

I really appreciate your help, so how do I get the Unicode to reveal itself?
-
So not resolved. I am now on my iMac. I copy the character from the text ’ then past it into Find - result nothing. On save the file then open it on the MacBook Air, copy the same character, then past in find and it works perfectly. How can this be?
-
Just to make it even more complicated, I work on an iMac with UK keyboard but also have a German iMacAir. you would imagine that the characters on the German machine would be the same as the UK one if the keyboard is set to UK, but it seems not. Two distinctly different characters which look identical.

Yes, thanks very much for you help. The book is 280 pages and that is a lot of ft!

FT.afpub Re the find and replace problem, I need to change ' to ft but can't find it in the search.

yes, tried it, failed

Many thanks. I have cropped tables to overcome the problem with cell height in vertical text, though not in this case. Cropping a putting the two together is certainly a viable solution to the cell height problem. Thanks again.

My file is over 350Mb so I just took the offending object and created a new file, but the effect is the same. Open this and look in font manager. Though I have Myriad pro installed it tells me that set is missing and that is the ghost character. Ghost.afpub
