EV command description


Description: This command balance the vertical spacing of several blocks to fill a specified depth.


Syntax: [ EV =  FirstBlock  ;  LastBlock  ;  MinSpace  ;  MaxSpace  ;  Depth  ;  FillBlock    ]


FirstBlock
Integer
Number of the first block to justify.
     
LastBlock
Integer
Number of the last block to justify.
     
MinSpace
Points/Tenths
Minimum space between blocks.
     
MaxSpace
Points/Tenths
  Maximum space between blocks
     
Depth
Picas/Points
Total depth between the top of the first block and the bottom of the last block.
     
FillBlock
Boolean
If the value maxSpace is reached and the programme cannot correctly balance the column, it creates a filling block (TRUE) and inserts the average space (maxSpace-minSpace) between each blocks. If this parameter is FALSE, the average space is inserted, but no filling block is created.
     


Note: This command is not yet implemented in the Adobe PageMaker version.


Example: [ev=5; 25; d5; d10; m27; FALSE]
