Morten_Hjort Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I've now tried for quite some time to figure out what the issue is, but I've given up and believe its a bug. The spacing of both sections with red are having a 2,8mm in spacing (same setting for everything else), but its easy to see that its not the same. I copied in the top text as "paste without format" but it still made the old (right looking) text slimmer. How come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Do you mean the leading is different for the two Paragraphs? you can change it to be the same in the Paragraphs Studio. Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is exactly the same, but visually its not. Thats the issue. All settings are 1:1 but its easy to see something is not the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Callum Posted October 30, 2018 Staff Share Posted October 30, 2018 Hi Morten, In your first post you say the spacing is set to 2.8mm but none of the text boxes is set to that in the file you have provided which setting were you referring to? Thanks Calum Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are getting an extra 1.3 pt between the lines that doesn't come from leading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Publisher option. Designer doesn't have it. It can help diagnose problems, but now we know what the problem is in this case and you don't need it to solve it. You can select the text and set Space Before Paragraph to 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt.farrell Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 13 minutes ago, Morten_Hjort said: But it's not. Have you checked in the file? What they are saying is that each line is followed by a "return", making each a separate paragraph. That's hard to see when you examine the file using Designer, but clear when you examine it using Publisher. To fix the file: 1. Delete the hidden "return" at the end of each line, and replace with a shift-return. Or 2. Change the setting that Dave Harris mentioned, which will make the number of paragraphs irrelevant.
