Line spacing
In a column of figures,
how do I do I underline the last figure before total without have an excess amount of space between the two numbers? I tried kerning the total figure so it would be closer to the line and find it prints ok, but cuts off the number. Line spacing didn't work well, either. Your thoughts???? -- RCCPIO |

You could draw a line (from the Drawing toolbar) and place it in the correct
position. "RCCPIO" wrote in message ... In a column of figures, how do I do I underline the last figure before total without have an excess amount of space between the two numbers?

I cannot make the drawn lines consistent throughout the document. I read the
responses about truncating type using the kerning option. I know I should use a publishing software to produce this catalog, but would really like to keep the document in Word and publish from a PDF. Are my options to use kerning or to draw each line individually? "Jezebel" wrote: Other than what? "RCCPIO" wrote in message ...

Kerning is an adjustment to the horizontal position of the characters.
Nothing to do with vertical placement; so I can't see how that will help. Use an exact line spacing, perhaps? "RCCPIO" wrote in message ...

Thank you very much!
Exact line spacing worked with a little tweaking. This is a Pagemaker document, imported into Quark, and stripped and placed into Word. Although I cleared the formatting and started over with the formatting, there are some codes that must be there that don't show up under Reveal Formatting or using the paragraph symbol. I inserted a line of em dashes under each column of numbers in the first example. I used exact spacing to place the em dashes as I wanted them. I copied the line and inserted it under each column of numbers throughout and deleted the previous line that would not move for some reason. Worked great! Thank you for helping me finish a major project! Bless you! "Jezebel" wrote: Kerning is an adjustment to the horizontal position of the characters.

Did you also try creating a bottom border on the text using an EQ \x field?
