I always anchor my frames to a line, so I didn't clue in on the fact that you can't simply add a paragraph after a frame. | Just, if you want to reproduce the phenomenon: Here's the necessary | information: | - 2-column document | - paragraph format: | default font: AvantGarde 10pt regular book regular | space above: 0pt, below 0pt, leading 2pt | line spacing: Default (or whatever you want) | - problem: | paragraph continuing from botton of left column | on top of right column right after the anchored frame | (placed on top of right column) Yes, I was able to get FrameMaker to put the characters right under the frame with no leading. It looks bad if you use a border or fill. Since the manual says that Frame will adjust this if you tell it to space with leading + largest font size, that's what you would normally do. But I tried that, and Frame didn't change anything. | My first explanation was that FM simply forgets to add the line-spacing | information when there is no line above in the same column. That's what it looks like. Another thing I always do is create a frame with no border and no fill. I then create a rectangle inside with the border, leaving some space around it. I have always done this without any particular reason, but it sounds like a work-around you might try. Kim -- Kim Letkeman kim@software.mitel.com uunet!mitel!spock!kim
