Positioning character vertically in line
Other than using a text box, is there a way to position the asterisk (*) and
caret (^) so they fall closer to the base of the line being typed. I tried using Font Character Spacing Position Lowered but that pushes the next line down by the same number or points the character is lowered. Some documents require a row of asterisks or carets inserted in line with the rest of the text. -- Für Elise - Support the Breast Cancer & Heart Foundations |

Loweing the text won't push the line down if you set the line spacing of the
paragraph to an exact amount. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "RealGomer" wrote in message ...
