mykee Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Hello, I wrapping a book, and a letter many times goes to end of line (this letter is "a" what is "the"). How can I set Publisher for one character drop to new line automatically? fde101 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykee Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 Here is an example: "A" letter on end of line, but start a new sentence. If I can set a parameter (in paragraph settings) for "one letter drop to new line", that's will be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I don’t think there’s a setting for this. The usual way to deal with that situation is simply to use a non-breaking space between the ‘a’ and the next word. mykee 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykee Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 Great tip, but I think an option will great, if I no see this character when read text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wosven Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Try to replace them like this: Find: "<space>A<space>" Replace all: "<space>A<non-breaking space>" Fixx and mykee 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykee Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 I will try this replace tip, great thanks! Update: this non-breaking space tip was the best, I tested, and I will use in future! Thank you Alfred and Wosven! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petr Illek Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I've tried to use a technique I was using in InDesign for 10+ years and its working. In Find field use regular expression (this one is set-up for Czech language, but should be fairly easy to update for others): (\<[szkvaiouSZKVAIOU])[ ] Then in the Replace with use: $1 That will use any result from the regex. Add anything before or after that. In my case I'm adding the Non Breaking Space after. See attached screenshot. $1[Non Breaking Space] Sadly this Find and Replace cannot be saved as a preset now.

The 1.8 beta has an improvement in this area, and remembers Find and Replace expressions that you have used. It needs further improvement (for example, the Find and Replace values are not tied together and cannot be tied together), but it's a start.

james948 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Sorry can you clarify how to do a non-breaking space and what it does? Also I don't suppose there's been a chance in the way this is handled? It seems odd to not to be able to disallow one letter orphans at the end of a line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
