These kinds of macros will require a simple combination of find commands and style menu items. Basically you'll want to find the text that meets your criteria and then apply your style. So, your parenthesis macro might look like this: Find '^\(.+$', 'aE' Format:Character Style:Parenthesis The first ...

it is Palatino. I tried opening a new document and just typing lower case "abcd" and it came up red when I tried to change from my default to Palatino. I know the font is installed, It appears in my other word processors. Palatino definitely contains lowercase "a" through "...

You can use fixed line height to prevent superscripted/supscripted text from affecting the line height.

This is indeed a bug. When you enter a hyperlink in NWP it will automatically prefix "http://" if no protocol is specified. This unfortunately prevents the use of relative URLs for hyperlinks. We'll file a bug, thanks.

For cases when you want to break text apart, you can always use a zero-width space (U+200B).

As for something like a URL, which might break in unsightly ways, we have filed away the feature "keep text together on same line".

Hi Bob- when you change the kerning, you want to have both (all) of the characters selected. Here's an example with your name loosened between one and four times, zoomed in to 400%: http://nisus.com/support/martin/kern.jpg As you can see, the effects are subtle. Really we should add a slider or some...

Hi Marco, I'm sorry to say that there's no way for you to change this right now. However, I'd consider this bad behavior by the typesetter and will file a bug that we change it. Thanks for letting us know.

I initiated this topic by asking whether NWP was able to adjust the baseline in an imported MathType equation. Has the problem been fixed in the new versions of NWP and/or NW Express? I was unable to contact Nisus about this and thus have a further question: Does Nisus still provide support? Pro 1....
