Text tagged as "code" appears below baseline

Post by Nita Beck »

Hi all,

I'm stumped (again!), so of course am petitioning you experts for assistance.

Tidbits first: Flare 4.2, WebHelp and PDF targets.

I have tagged some text within a paragraph with the "code" style. The only edit I've made to the "code" style is to have it be 9pt.

In the WebHelp output, all looks fine.

In the PDF output, the "code" text appears below the baseline (if I'm using the correct typography terminology). It looks awful.

Any suggestions what's up?

I'm also having trouble with this. A few suggestions were posted in this thread: http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewto ... =10&t=8306. None of them worked for me, however.

Thanks for pointing me to the other post. I'll try Lisa's suggestion and create a span tag for my inline "code" sample. But, given your experience, I'm doubtful it'll work. This might, indeed, be another buggy PDF issue.
