SetPairKern Text Command

SETPAIRKERN Text Commands

Sets the manual kerning for the character pair at the insertion point. This command can only be used when the insertion point is between two characters and text is not selected.

setpairkern [DOCUMENT name | WINDOW name]

AMOUNT/d Sets manual kerning (-327 to 327).

DOCUMENT/s The document name.

WINDOW/s The window name.

Notes:

If the charater pair are also automatically kerned, the pair kerning will still be measured from zero, but will be applied on top of the automatic design kerning.

Kerning units are 1/100th of an em space.

Examples:

setpairkern amount '-10.5' document 'project.doc'
