Page referrer now superscript
In January when we used Page Referrers, it was in-line with the text.
We noticed in our recent builds that the page referrer was superscript and wrecking the line spacing where it appears. I think the Page referrer is now some kind of superscript that doesn't fit on the line.
If we use different printer drivers for the publishing, this affects how big the page referrer is and therefore how weird the line spacing looks.
This happens if we recompile or old builds too so it appears to be a change in the PDF building engine or H&M since January. Is this a bug. Or was the old behavior a bug? Is there any place were we can tweak this and can we get the old inline behavior back?

Hi Francis,
We will definitely look into this. However, note that you can choose from a wide range of page referrer styles and some of them are larger than others. For the time being you may be able to correct this by choosing a differente style.

Re: Page referrer now superscript
Looks fine for me, still unchanged, inline. Can you send me a small demo project to reproduce this?
If you are using a paragraph style, make sure that the "Print view" of the paragraph style does not have extended line spacing. In the status bar of the main window, you find a toggle button to toggle between screen and print styles while editing a topic.

Re: Page referrer now superscript
I can confirm the same effect, after checking back to an old PDF and comparing it with the current one. We create a PDF on each build but only supply it on special request because it runs to over 2200 pages - so I seldom look at it. In our case it happens with the rounded rectangle page referrer. We are using XPS as the reference printer. The fonts affected a have 'same as screen view' enabled in the printer font settings.

Re: Page referrer now superscript
Thanks, clearly I should have mentioned that my screen text size is 'medium'! I think I will have to wait for the release, unless you think it is safe to use the beta now with the current PP (not using a responsive skin).

Glad there is a fix. I will try to upload my project in a zip file. If there is a better way let me know. I seem to be failing by adding it as an attachment.

It is absolutely OK to use the current beta with the current PP. I only work in the beta and everything is working fine.Tim Frost wrote:Thanks, clearly I should have mentioned that my screen text size is 'medium'!

Re: Page referrer now superscript
Don't try to upload projects to the forum; that's counterproductive. Always mail them directly to support AT ec-software.com (replace the AT with @). However, you no longer need to send us a project for this issue at all, since it has been corrected. Just install the stable beta to get the fix:Francis Langlois wrote:Glad there is a fix.
