I have run into a problem that I hope someone can help me with. I am creating a set of special text characters for use in RomanS font. These are used with the double percent symbol as a prefix. My probelm is, I have succesfully created several new characters, but I have two that will not come into a text string at the same size as the other text. They consistantly come in much smaller. I have created these the same way as I have created the others, overall scale of 1 and a font size of .08. I exploded the text and used make shape from the express tools pull down on all of these characters, but only two of them refuse to cooperate.

Any help I can get in resolving this issue will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

Wayne Martin

So are you editing the RomanS.shp file? Maybe if you posted this file.
