StarOffice 8 word spacing for paragraph line fitting

How do I ensure that each line in a paragraph will end near the right boundary of the paragraph? In other words, how do I make the spacing between words and characters adjust dynamically to ensure the line ends in the same place?

I haven't got the English version, but afaik this one is hidden behind "Justification" => "full" in the paragraph formatting.
It is best to adjust your standard template.

  • How do I correct the line spacing for last line of a paragraph?

    I am using a paragraph style with a GREP  setting all tect to a specific character style (Arial 9 pt with 12 pt leading.)
    The last line had a larger spacing.  Reading the forums I found that the end of paragraph character (EOP) had the wrong font size and checking it I found it was set to 12 pt with auto leading. Somehow  in playing with the text I got the EOP to match the 9/11 setting, but still have the space.
    So I closed the file and changed the default text  to be arial  6 pt so that the paragraph character would no longer dictate the line space.  This has no affect.
    I reset the paragraph as basic paragraph and it sets it to a font Minion Pro @12 pt.  I though t I had changed the default, but nothing changed????.
    I am also a bit confused as to why changing a paragraph style does not change the EOP as well.  Is there a setting to make it behave the same?
    OR
    Is this a problem with the GREP statement?  It currently uses the period character to select everything.

    Have you tried simply placing your cursor in the problematic paragraph and click on "clear overrides"? If it works for one paragraph, select them all and do that.
    However, what is the underlying paragraph style? Have you tried changing the leading in the paragraph style definition.
    It sounds a little like what's happening is that your grep style is applying a charater style to all character but not the EOP marker, which is taking it's leading from the underlying paragraph style.
    Also, why are you using a GREP stye to apply a character style to everything in the paragraph. It would make more sense to define those attributes withing the paragraph style itself.

  • Fix for extra line spacing in code on publish

    Hi Everyone
    Here is a fix for the issue where on publishing using Contribute (CS3 / CS4) extra line spacing is added into the HTML code on publish.  Everytime you publish using Contribute extra line spacing is added between the lines of coding destroying the formatting over time.
    (See attached PDF document for the complete how to step-by-step fix.)
    The issue lies in the line break type defined in Adobe Contribute settings.  Where the web server type, the website is hosted on Unix / Windows, is different from the line break type defined in Contribute's settings under...
    Users & Roles > Editing > Line break Type
    For example:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <title>Website Tile</title>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Keywords here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Description here" />
    On publish becomes:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <title>Website Tile</title>
    <meta name="keywords" content="Keywords here" />
    <meta name="description" content="Description here" />
    (dots are used just to space the text in the forum thread post, they represent blank lines between the lines of code)

    It sounds like you are carrying over a desktop setting that I dont think is editable in iPad pages. It is the before and after spacing around paragraphs. I have been using iPad versions for months now and cant think of the desktop wording in the inspector.
    Open back up in Dekstop pages and see if you can find that setting and reset it to a lower value, or delete the value and resend to iPad.

  • My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters are showing up as green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC.

    My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters, specifically parameters, are showing up green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC. I can manually fix this in the TOC by changing the character style to none after the toc  has been generated, but I don't want to do this.

  • Make a Line Fit with Vision Assistant for a polynominal function?!

    Hello
    I do have following problem to solve: I do have a laser spot which draws a line (non linear) to a wall. For this line I need to know the (exact) mathematical
    function. Therefore I can get an image of the line but I do not know how I can extract the mathematical function with a line fit for example. If I could "convert"
    the line into points I would use the line fit function of LabView which should work without problem.
    Is there a way to solve the problem with the vision assistant or..?
    Thanks in advance
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    by now I have learned that (almost) anything is possible. You can achieve this using Labview, Matlab, C++, etc... In any case, getting the coordinates of a single laser line (single laser line - you don't need to find correspondences, as opposed to multi-line projection) should be really simple. If you place an apropriate filter in front of the camera, it is even simpler!
    If you want proof it can be done (and the description/procedute I used), check out the link in my signature and search for laser scanner posts (I think there is three of them, if I remember correctly). I have made a really cheap scanner (total cost was around 45 eur). The only problem is that it is not fully calibrated. If you want to make precise distance measurements, you need to calibrate it, for example using a body of known shape. There are quite a few calibration methods - search in papers online.

  • Spacing after paragraphs

    Is there a way to control spacing after paragraphs in Pages for the iPad?
    In MS Word, I can specify in points or inches how much space there will be after each paragraph. When I import a DOC file into iPad pages, that formatting is supported. But I can't see how to get that kind of formatting in Pages itself.

    I've hunted round and it's just not here and worse than that, the templates not even have paragraph spacing built in. As a graphic designer, nothing irritates me more than people submitting copy with added paragraph returns to space them out. It is beyond tedious and needs to be fixed soon
    Be glad that you don't deal with my wife. Instead of tabs, she uses multiple spaces!

  • Get numeric values of word spacing displayed?

    while there are two ways to influence the word spacing (by setting the minimum, desired, and maximum values in the Justification settings, and by using the keyboard short cut increasing or decreasing word spacing), I cannot find where the resulting word spaces are displayed as numeric values. Since kerning values are easily looked into, I presume there must be a way to have the word spacing values displayed, too. But how?

    It's not a known item in Javascript -- it would need to be a private property of the Line class, as each single line has its own word spacing adjustment.
    But using two javascripts you can find out how much the space on each line is stretched or compressed.
    First, you need to know the width of a regular space in the font and size (and other parameters as well, such as tracking and horizontal scaling!). Select one single space in Left Aligned text and run this script:
    alert ( app.selection[0].insertionPoints[1].horizontalOffset - app.selection[0].insertionPoints[0].horizontalOffset);
    It will show a popup with a ridiculous exact number. Myriad Pro at 8 pts, for example, gives "0.59828389485676". Now press Ctrl+C to copy this text (I'm not sure if the Mac can do this as well!). Go to another script and paste just the number in there:
    regularWordSpace = 0.59828389485676;
    alert ( 100*(app.selection[0].insertionPoints[1].horizontalOffset - app.selection[0].insertionPoints[0].horizontalOffset)/regularWordSpace);
    If you select any justified space (again, using the same font, size, tracking, whatnot), it'll display a fairly reliable percentage, yeah, unto the seventh generation of exactitude and more.

  • How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)

    How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)
    I my vision applications I use a lot off times "IMAQ Line Fit"
    some times the results are not Stable.
    See vi and word document attached.
    When I take the same points but in a other order (sort)
    then suddenly all points are used.
    In this case I was looking for a edge in vertical direction (Y).
    I found the points but "IMAQ Line Fit" did not function well.
    I tried changing all settings like pixel radius and minimum score and
    also threshold and so on. But no result.
    Then I sorted the points reversed and that worked. See vi.
    I use labview Labview 8.6.0 and IMAQ machine vision.
    Maybe this problem is solved in a newer version.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Thank You for your reaction Hossein,
    This "one application" uses "Line fit" about 20 000 000 times a day.
    about 200 will go wrong. With your setting the the "Line fit" for this occasion will work but others will go wrong.
    A algorithm should be:
    1e Stable, when using the same points and settings the result MUST be the same. How the points are sorted should not matter.
    2e Accuracy
    3e Speed
    4e Testing. Is very difficult but al least close points and the same points and sorting ... should be done
    NI now as made a " IMAQ Line Fit" Problem CAR (Corrective Action request) 298016.
    so in the future there will be a update.
    In the mean while a made a line fit which uses Bisquare option from Linear Fit.vi :
      from C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\analysis\6fits.llb
    This is a temporary fix because "IMAQ Fit Line VI" is not so stable.
    Because outliers should be rejected only Bisquare does this reasonable.
    This program does NOT USE "Minimum Score" and "Pixel Radius"
    Valid fit = When there are enough points within Outlier_Distance.
    Algorithm steps:
    - Determine if line is more horizontal then vertical, Compare DeltaX with DeltaY
    - If DeltaX <= DeltaY then SWAP X Y and later Swap back
    - Sort Points at on X value
    - First : Bisquare Linear Fit
    - Calculate distances to the found line for all points
    - Inliers: Points within Outlier_distance
    - Outliers: Points outside Outlier_Distance
    - Only use Inlier Points
    - Check again if DeltaX < DeltaY then SWAP X Y later SWAP back again
    - Second : Bisquare Linear Fit only with the Inlier Points
    - Results are from the second fit
    Warning : This Program is Not so accurate and Not so fast
    See attachments it is in labview 8.6
    If some has a improvement please let me know.
    Thanks

  • Uneven Word Spacing in Hindi FM Manual

    We have a Hindi manual created in FM 11.00 and it seems the font Nirmala UI is not supported by the Application, thereby causing uneven space between words. Please advise how to fix it.

    You can also adjust the Word spacing in each paragraph using the Advanced tab.
    Also, depending upon how the font is internally specified, it may also trigger FM's Asian settings. There are some spacing contols for this as well in the Paragraph designer:

  • Please Help me...For loose line fixer

    Hi,
    I just want to try a script for fixing loose lines automatically. My concept is,
    1) Finding the wrod space width.
    2) Depending on the width value, fix desired width value. I know it may vary for each character and fonts.
    3) If finding any over widthed space inside the para, i need to give tracking from value -1 to -10 untill we reached desired width. If not possible retain to zero tracking(original state). We don't need to check this for single line para, so just skip that.
    My client SOP:
    1) H&J values should not changes.
    2) Single line composer alone used
    3) Single line tracking not used.
    4) Positive tracking not allowed
    5) Tracking value should between -1 to -10.
    Is it possible?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi ,
    My friend gave me a little script to find space width of paragraph.
    //Setting preferences to point and
    //set page rulers to pageOrigin
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.points;
    myDoc.viewPreferences.rulerOrigin = RulerOrigin.PAGE_ORIGIN;
    myDoc.zeroPoint = [0, 0];
    var docStories = myDoc.stories;
    for (var st=0; st<docStories.length; st++){
        var paras = docStories[st].paragraphs;
        ClearGrepPreferences();
        for (var p=0; p<paras.length; p++){
            if (paras[p].lines.length>1){
                app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = " ";//Find All spaces in current paragraph
                var spaces = paras[p].findGrep();
                if (spaces.length>0){
                    spaceWidth = spaces[0].endHorizontalOffset-spaces[0].horizontalOffset;//end position - start position gives the width of the space character
                    alert("Paragraph "+(p+1)+" Space Width = "+spaceWidth);
                }//End of if loop lines >1
            }//End  of "p" for loop
        }//End of stories for loop
    function ClearGrepPreferences(){
        app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
        app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
        app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING
        app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING
    From this script, i want to find the average space width of entire document (it actually find the space of each para). It will saved in the variable  spaceWidth. Then the script ask user for giving a desired space width. Let say, userSpace. Then it will compare the userSpace with   spaceWidth. If the space Width is more than userSpace value,  then allow tracking from -1 to -10 using FOR loop to get desired value. If it will not get desired then retain the para tracking as zero and skip to next para.
    Am i get any help from this point?
    Advance thanks

  • How to remove bullets and spacing for url links in the Related Links iview?

    I tried to look for a property that I can edit the look-n-feel of the url links in the Related Link iView using "Theme Editor".
    All I need is to remove the bullets and increase some vertical spacing between the links.
    Currently, it looks like this:
    URL iView A
    URL Iview B
    I go through the whole section of Related Links properties, none of them seems to do what I want.
    Here are the list of properties in Related Link section (of Navigation Panel):
    Link Color
    Text Decoration of Link
    Hover Color
    Text Decoration of Hovered Link
    Initially, I thought "Text Decoration of Link" should be the right property I should look at. But there are a drop-down with 5 options: None, Underline, Blinking, Overline and Line-Through, which really can't achieve what I want.
    Thanks for advice.

    Hi, Kai.
    I checked the Related iView properties (URL Template), I don't see what layoutset it is really using. I am not sure, is that a layout set apply to the Related Link Iview?
    For the regular KM iView, I will see what Layout Set I want to apply, then I can go and change the properties (of layout coontroller, collection renderer & resource renderer)you mentioned. But for this Related Link iView, I really don't know. I guess it may be in the code itself.
    If there is a layout set for Related Link iView (or the place to apply layout set to it), can you point to me which one is that? (I did a search through the layout set names, I only find the AppQuicklinkExplorer (I used this for Dynamic Nav. Link iView before), if I can aply this layout set to Related Link iView, my problem will be solved.)
    Thanks for help.

  • How do I repaginate a PDF document in Word 2008 for Mac?

    I am trying to repaginate a PDF document made in Word 2008 for Mac, which I have uploaded to Scribd for public perusal.  Unfortunately, whatever I do to the settings for the document it always comes out in reverse order. (60 - 1 instead of 1 - 60)
    The problem is not with Scribd, as they just reproduce the document in the order in which it is sent.  Somewhere along the line, the pages are reordered. They are not numbered in the document.

  • How do I change the style of one word in a paragraph

    I've been fighting with this issue for a while and after google searches and switching to word for mac (ugh) I have decided to ask for help!
    I have a paragraph in my document, and I'd like to format a single word in that paragraph to a different font style. When I select the word, and only the word that needs to have the different style, and click the style from the format tab on the right, the entire paragraph is changed to that style.
    I've tried selecting the word and clicking on the style, I've tried just putting the cursor on the word, but every time the entire paragraph is changed to the selected style. Just to clarify, I dont simply mean changing the font, but using a predefined style from the document.
    Any IDEAS?

    OK! Nevermind, I figured it out.
    The Styles that show at the top of the Format tab are Paragraph Styles. There is a tiny dropdown under Font called Character Styles. I had to preset the style there and use that for individual words.
