phila3 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I been using PagePlus since version 2 but am trying to learn by setting up our next newsletter in Publisher. I just ran into something though that is curious. In PP I could get text blocks to fit a specific space either by reducing the leading or font size slightly. If you clicked the up or down arrows or scrolled the mouse wheel while hovering over the font size it would either increase or decrease by .1 of the font size. For instance, one-click down from 8 pt would give you 7.9 pts. Same thing on the leading. If i try to do the same thing in Publisher either by clicking the arrows or hovering over the font size it increases or decreases by a full point size which isn't very helpful nudging things to fit. BTW if the point size is set to 8 pt you can key in 7.9 and it will work but it's certainly not as easy to do as clicking the arrows or scrolling the mouse wheel. I don't' see any way to change a setting in preferences. Any incite would be appreciated. Also I am really missing the external text editor that you could access in PP with CTRL+E Thanks in advance for any thoughts or workarounds.
