    Default Weird font, leading and measurment's numbering!

    It's difficult to explain this one so see the pics:

    I don't know why this is happening and haven't found a solution yet.
    I have just got a new Mac Book Pro and am running CS2. I used to have a G5 and never had this problem. I don't know if this is an intel problem. (we want universal!!)

    Hope someone can help.

    Cheers

    Not only not difficult, but brought up more and more frequently every day. You're experiencing a problem with InDesign running on an Intel Mac. You just have to live with it. I've seen it suggested that turning off Dimensions Include Stroke Weight (on the Transform or Control palette drop-downs) helps.

    The good news here is that those small errors are presentation errors only. If you send your document to a non-Intel Mac or to a Windows machine, the measurements will be correct.

    I get the same issue on my Intel Mac Mini, both in OS X as well as Windows. I'm not surprised that this sort of problem comes up with something running through Rosetta, but why would it do so in Windows on an Intel Mac?

    A good question. My experience on a MacBook Pro is contrary to yours. I do have the problem in InDesign under Mac OS, but not under Windows XP running under Parallels Workstation.

    How are you running Windows, Michael? Is it with BootCamp?

    I'm running it with Boot Camp. I noticed someone said something about turning off "Dimensions Include Stroke Weight". I tried that and it actually does seem to work, under Windows at least.
