Large spacing between text

I have large spacing between texts in plenty of programs in my Mac. It will show up in certain sites in Safari, Opera, and Firefox. Also in ITunes, Text edit, yahoo messenger, those are the only ones I've noticed. The spacing is only between lines of text and the spaces in between can be almost 2 inches big. I noticed too that in yahoo messenger and in text edit the font will be in 10 pt, but the cursor will be 72 pt big, but the text typed remains at 10 pt.
I do recall a time before I updated to Tiger that I deleted some fonts or maybe a plug-in. I'm not sure if this is a missing plug-in issue or a font issue. I've tried fixing the font settings in each of the softwares/browsers mentioned above and it didn't make a difference. Please help!! It's incredibly annoying and still haven't found a solution to this problem.

Thank you!! I went through Font Book and I didn't have duplicates for Courier in there, but I do have Suite Case and noticed that I had tons of duplicates and damaged fonts. I haven't gone through each damaged font yet, but I did quit suitcase and the problem was fixed. I decided to get rid of Suitcase anyways, because I don't like the software. Thank you so much for helping me with this problem. It's been such a nuisance for several months now.

Need to minimize spacing between text and footnotes

I'm editing a style manual (Librarian self-taught InDesign newbie!) and need to lesson the space between the end of the text and footnote line (So I can get all the material on one page.) I'm using a textbox with the footnote feature. I know that one of the Footnote Options should do it, but when I change the First Baseline Offset options it messes up the leading of the footnotes as well (which need to appear single spaced. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That was it Ravi!!! Thank you so much!!!! I'm doing my happy dance

How to change spacing between text boxes

In Pages, when I change something to multiple columns, it actually adds a large amount of space between what appears to be text boxes. If I enable "Show layout", it shows a border around the various "boxes" with the white space between them. How do I reduce this space and or remove it.

Hi csing,
In a document from the "Informal Resume" template, I turned on these settings in the View Menu to help me see how the document is arranged:
Here is a some screen shots of the document. I added Borders to the text boxes for clarity. My notes are in red.
In My Humble Opinion, this template is all over the place like a mad dog's breakfast. Use the template for ideas. Then create your own template from
Menu > File > New from Template Chooser > Basic > Blank.

Spacing between characters too large when using line justification !!!!

Dear friends,
Since the first time when I have used Pages I noticed a somewhat annoying feature: Sometimes when I use line justification (left and right) the spacing between the characters increase substantially. Sometimes the spacing is ridiculously large. I guess that I have mad something wrong, but I do not know what. Can someone give me a hint what I should do to overcome this irritating aspect?!
Thanks in advance

There is no doubt that Mellel is a much better application than Pages in a lot of areas. It has been around for longer, it is more mature and it is actively maintained. Pages is of course better in a lot of other areas - and there is room for both on the market.
Mellel handles hyphenation in a much more advanced way than Pages and it has support for example for soft-hyphens, editable hyphenation dictionaries and hyphenation zones - something Pages lacks.
When it comes to the large space between characters, however, I cannot say that Mellel has invested a lot in making it look good. They just chose the simplest solution, just like MS Word, to increase space between words - not between characters. They even use this as an example of something ugly in Mellel's own user guide: "For example, the following text is fully justified but not hyphenated. The spaces between the words look wide and make the text look quite ugly."
As mentioned before, in some cases increasing space between words is the most pleasing solution to the eye. In some cases adding some space between characters is more pleasing, and that is the reason why Apple went to the extra trouble of adding that functionality. In many cases, it is not obvious which way is best, and people will have diverging opinions.

Spacing between textfield and text

Anyone know how to set spacing between the text and border of a textfield?
The docs say to use
textfield.setMargin(new Insets(top, left, bottom, right));
but that doesn't do anything.
Thanks a lot for suggestions.

The problem is that your border isn't going to use the margin of the text field (since it's not specialised for text fields). You've got a number of options:
1) use the default border
2) use a compound border with the default border inside
3) write your own border that incorporates the text field's margin
4) don't bother setting the margin and simply add a corresponding EmptyBorder into your compound border instead
Option 4 is probably the quickest for you:
textField.setBorder(new CompoundBorder(SOLID_BORDER, new EmptyBorder(10, 10, 10, 10)));Hope this helps.

Line Spacing in text field.

Hi,
I have added many text fields to my pdf document. Some of them need following:
1.
Adjust the line spacing between two lines.
2.
Make the text "justified".
I can not find any way to accomplish these things. Can anyone tell me how to do these things?
Thanks,
Vijay

Geo,
Are you talking about check box "Allow Rich Text Formatting" in the Text Field Properties dialog box? I have it checked.
But still it does not give me ability to adjust line spacing or "justify"ing the text.
Thanks,
Vijay

How can I get a large amount of text in imovie?..look inside, I'll explain

Ok....say I have:
'Roy Lichtenstein was born October 27, 1923, in New York City. He describes his childhood as quiet and uneventful. His father was a realtor, and his mother was a housewife. Art was not taught at the school he attended, but when he was 14, he began taking Saturday-morning classes at the Parsons' School of Design.'
I want to insert it into imovie in between clips in black. I have my black clip, length x, but there doesn't seem to be any TITLE functions that accomodate placing a large amount of text that all appears at the same time and doesn't move, etc.
the best solution i've come up with is to use the music video setting which basically gives me what I want except for the fact that all the text is on one half of the screen and the longest you can use this funtion is for 10 seconds! it's a compromise I don't really want to make when it seems like there should be a simple solution that maybe I'm just not seeing which lets me transfer text from appleworks or wherever to fill the screen with text so that it looks 'normal'.

create that chart with any pic processor and import via iPhoto... so, you could even add a "scrolling"
and:
a pic processor gives you a much higher control about typography...
beware, that a TV is no computer monitor - it isn't made for "reading", has a much smaller res, interlaces video, ..

Pages 5: Spacing between bullets (not line spacing)

How can I control the spacing between bullets?
1. I clearly see how to control the spacing around a bullet relevant to its text. That's not what I'm referring to.
2. I clearly see how to set line spacing. That's not what I'm referring to.
What I'd like to do is keep a line spacing of 1.0 on the text, but add padding between list items (between bulleted content). The method in Pages '09 was to add buffer space "after the paragraph" (or before). However, in Pages 5.0 this option does not exist. Some of my bullets have enough content that wraps, which is why line spacing is not an acceptable solution.
How can I control spacing between bulleted list items, such that each chunk of content is better separated?
Thank you!

Silly me. I have located it, by expanding the Spacing menu. The control I'm looking for is right there.
I've included a screencap, in case anyone else misses the obvious like I have. Thanks for looking!

ABAP webdynpro how to give spacing between the UI Elements in a view

Hi Expert,
I am very new to webdynproapplication development. I am stuck in changing the look of the ui elements of the view.
Cud anyone explain how to set the spaces between the UI Elements on a View is there any method ?
I have set the Layout property to Matrix layout. But here I am unable to set the spacing between the deffernet elements as it is taking it automaticaaly and I am not able to allign all the Elements.
Need your help!.............thank you
Moderator message: wrong forum, please have a look in the dedicated "Web Dynpro ABAP" forum.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Apr 15, 2011 10:17 PM

Hi anushree.,
If u are using matrix layout:
In Layout Data select MatrixHeadData to display UI in next line.,
If u want to give space between UI elements in the width enter 50, 60, 70 or what ever space u want.
Also in the vGutter u can select medium , large , medium with rule to give space between UI elements.
n if u want to give space between lines ., in the height enter 30 40 or whatever spacing between lines u want.,
Matrix layout is a good layout., and u can play with colspan , hAlign, vAlign, vGutter, width and height options.,
If u dont like the layout with these options then use Grid layout., where u can give custom spacing., with the help of Left Padding, Right Padding, Top Padding, Bottom Padding.
reply if u need some more clarifications.,
Thanks & Regards
Kiran

Blank space between text boxes after publishing

I have a few pages with a relatively large number of text boxes on them (perhaps 20). These are all separated by a few pixels in iWeb, but when I publish to .mac, I see quite a bit of space between them. Is this a known problem? Is there a fix?
Thanks,
Patrick

Go into iWeb and check that your text boxes are not overlapping each other. If they are, this can cause problems when publishing. Check that they do not overlap and re-publish and see what happens then.

How to maintain spacing between 2 elements in webdynpro

Hi Experts,
I got 3 pushbutton. I am using matrix layout but spacing(distance) between 3 of these elements is not uniform.
Please help me to make spacing between them to be uniform.
Thanks & Regards,
Niki

Hi Niki,
Use Vgutter property of buttons, use medium or large to make distance between buttons.
OR
Use Invisible UI Element and place between buttons it will give gap, give width of invisible element to move.
Cheers,
Kris.

Spacing between lines is not consistent!

Dear co-community members,
I am a happy Pages user since a couple of months, but I just discovered a weird thing and that is: the spacing between the lines is not consistent! I am typing my document with margins left and right: 2,25 upper and under: 2,00. I use Helvetica Neue Light in 10. And I have tried several spacings: 1,15 - 1,3 - 1,35 - 1,4 but the spaces between the lines are not consistently as big or as small as they need to be.
I discovered this when I was test printing it and I saw something was off - on paper, I thought it was my printer. But I also checked the document again: spacing was 'the same' in the whole document according to the info window. But I could see it with my bare eyes that it was not consistent (on screen nor on paper). I put the screen on 200% and I took a ruler and the spaces vary with 1mm when for example the spacing is set on 1,3. I don't think this is normal and I cannot find any solution nor explanation for it.
I am using a MBP Retina 13" late 2012 and I have the most updated/recent version of Pages/OSX. Please let me know whether I did something wrong or are my eyes just too good hahah - or it is an 'error' in Pages .
Kind Regards,
Ning.

@PeterBreis0807 & @Barry
I actually don't have any objects or other material/fonts in my text (yet) that are not uniform size . I wanted to make a print screen from a part of my text, but I am not sure if I am allowed to post that here since I am typing a literature review with references.
I btw do have headings in small capital (Helvetica Neue - Medium), it might not be Helvetica Neue Light also but I have never had problems with headings in another font causing inconsistent spacing between the rest of my text .
Thank you for your reply!
Ning.

Automatically create new slide after pasting large block of text?

Hello,
Does anyone know if it is possible to have Keynote automatically create new slides if I paste text that doesn't fit into a single slide? The biggest time waster I've encountered is the apparent requirement to break up large chunks of text manually.
If Keynote does not do this, any ideas as to an Applescript or something that could help?
Much appreciated

I usually try dragging from the bottom up in Web pages, it can be tricky getting at the part you want without the extraneous formatting, since that is concealed from you and web designers use many different methods for layout.
That's why pasting into a plain text document is a good idea to shake off the web formatting, otherwise you are groping around whatever Pages has interpreted the formatting to mean. Even browsers don't get this all right.
If the original was formatted as a table which won't fit one of the cells on a Pages page, it just pops and won't continue because Pages does not allow breaks in mid cell. If the cells are small enough to fit and you have pasted the table inline in the main text body of a WP file (between the margins) it will flow.
