... Yes, this I had thought of. Now I have tried this on two different computers: one of them resists the cell-adjusting - despite padding = 0 - leaving a lot...
Hello, The speller which works in Mellel, as well as in TextEdit, is based on cocoAspell which does good work as far as for, for me, English and French. It has...

In the Unicode table, I see thin spaces, e.g. 2009 thin space, 200A hair space, 200B zero width, etc. Is this what you're after? On May 12, 2009, at 13:46 ,...

Janet, Hebrew has adopted the system of Latin punctuation, but Heb RTF fonts have their own, font-specific punctuation marks. At least all the Hebrew RTF fonts...
Yes, Simi, but Gideon raises two issues 1. When Hebrew is used as the secondary font, Mellel selects punctuation marks from the primary font. This, as several...
