![]() ![]() In here, you can control your spacing and the number of subdivisions here with that, and change your grid structure. By turning on the little grid button, you can change the color of your grid lines and the way you see your grid with just your solid lines or all your divisions subdivisions. If you're used to working on a grid, you can also turn your grid on here. And space are objects very nicely together here. Smart guides will also allow us to go through. Top bottom, middle right center whatever you want and keep those all together very easily. Īir Nice to be able to go in and very quickly Select your objects, line them up with each other. Okay, you can turn off your smart guides and then just move these all around so you don't get those But the smart guides. So in this case, the center of the object I'm dragging is aligning to the object up above, or the edges or the centers or bottom left, right and snapping to each other. What does that actually dio? But when we select a shape that allows us to see these guides that show up when we dragon object. We had our precision panel where we can turn on, are snapping here and are smart guides by default. Our grids are guides and are smart guides here. Okay, but it's part of the pen tool, so we're gonna get to that here. Okay, so right now there is no specific line tool that you may be used to an illustrator. ![]() Where's our line tool? What's going on with our line tool? What? We're going to show you that because it's actually part of the pencil tool. The good news is that if you have them both on, at least the first lines in the columns are synchronized with each other.The one thing that's missing from this whole thing. You have to pick what is most important and let the rest go. Like everything in life, it’s a balancing act. Here’s where I remind you not to shoot the messenger. *Why did we turn off feathering in step 4? Because if feathering and synchronization are both on for a flow, feathering takes precedence over synchronization. If you want your headings, lists and other paragraph formats to also snap to the grid, you’ll need to change their line spacing values to 12.5 and activate Fixed Spacing. Headings and other paragraph formats with line spacing values of anything other than 12.5 will not. ![]() All paragraphs within the flow will snap to the 12.5 line spacing grid.If you want the headings to be aligned when they appear at the top of a column, specify 22 as the first-line limit. For example, suppose the leading for Body paragraphs is 12 points, the column grid is 12 points, and the headings are 22 points. In the First-Line Synchronization Limit text box, enter the largest font size to align at the top of a column. In the Synchronization Pgf’s with Line Spacing of area, enter your Body paragraph leading, in my example, it’s 12.5 pts.Select Baseline Synchronization and turn off Feather.Choose Format > Page Layout > Line Layout.Click in the flow you want to synchronize.In my example, my Body paragraphs have a line spacing value of 12.5 pts. Fixed line spacing needs to be turned on. Start by checking to see that the paragraph formats of the paragraph types you want to synchronize all have the same default font size and line spacing.FrameMaker also aligns the first line after an anchored frame and tries to align the first line in each column. Here’s how it works: when you synchronize, or align, text in a flow, FrameMaker creates an invisible grid in each text frame and aligns the baseline of the first line of each specified paragraph to the grid. If you aren’t sure, take a quick look at this post on Basic Typography Terms.īaseline alignment means lining up the baselines across columns. It’s a great concept, but doesn’t make much sense if you don’t understand the word “baseline”. In Adobe Framemaker: Aligning Text across Columns, Part I of II, we looked at two of the three text alignment options: column balance and feathering. ![]() Posted on: January 23rd, 2010 Author: barb.binder Category: Adobe FrameMaker Home / Adobe FrameMaker / Adobe FrameMaker: Aligning Text Across Columns, Part II of II Adobe FrameMaker: Aligning Text Across Columns, Part II of II ![]()
