iconoclast Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 Hi pummelfee! That's weird. I don't have this issue on Windows 10 with Publisher 1.10.4.1198. What Operating System and Publisher version you are working with? Does this happen with every font? Quote

Joachim_L Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 Is this happening with every font or only the font (which is it?) you are using in your example?

iconoclast Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 OK, I can't say anything about the MAC-version. But I noticed a possible issue as I made some experiments with my Windows-version in the last minutes. As I replaced an Initial by a decorative version of the same character from the Glyphs panel, the first two characters were displayed in initial size - even there is just the first one character chosen as initial, in the Paragraph panel. Edit: This only seems to happen with one font (Wallington), so it doesn't seem to be a Publisher issue. Edit again: And as I found out, this behaviour can be changed in the Typography panel, with the Stylistic Alternates. I also noticed that, relating to the certain font I'm using, the initials sometimes appear a little weird. In case of the font Livorno Pro f.e., the initial appears on height of the the second and third lines, if 3 lines height is chosen. That is definitely font-related, I think. Seems I have to learn a bit more about Publisher. I just bought the Workbook. Think it will help. Quote

Cannot make initials 😞 This is usually caused by the use of Baseline Grid being on for the paragraph and the Text Frame. If you can do without the baseline grid turn it off in the Text Frame. If you have to have it on then in the Paragraph Style use the same size Exact leading as the Baseline Grid.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
