mahoye Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I use a font that has very small punctuation marks. I'd like to create a paragraph style that allows me to mix font styles--so that I can use one font for the letters and another font for all the punctuation. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks.
Bhikkhu Pesala Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Is this font really so important to your work that you cannot find a better one? Find and Replace might be used to select the punctuation and apply a character style, a different point size, or a different font, but this kludge will surely cause problems.

Does anyone know of a way to do this? As the name applies, a Paragraph Style applies to a paragraph, and it has 1 font specification. If you have any characters in that paragraph that need a different font you would need to apply another (probaby Character) style to them. Or, you could design your own font. -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop 1: Windows 11 Pro 24H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

I'm always up for a good old fashioned kludging. This worked perfectly. Thanks, BP.
mahoye Posted March 21, 2019 Author Posted March 21, 2019 Backtalk and Backtalk Sans. https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/btn/backtalk-sans-btn/#index Like them both a lot--except for the small punctuation.
kenmcd Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Looked at the Backtalk Sans. I see what you mean. The curly quotes are much smaller than the regular apostrophe and quote. The visual weight is just off.
