JV command description

Description: This command calculates automatically the depth of a text block relative to the amount of text in the block. The block must not be linked. It is much faster to create a bigger block before using the vertical justification. If the block is too short, the function must make repetitive approximations. This takes time. The selected block becomes the current block. Version 6.5: JV now allow for picture box adjustment.

Syntax: [ JV =  Block#  ;  doHJust  ;  doVJust  ;  maxhor  ;  maxver  ;  LeftJustify  ;  TopJustify    ]

Block#
Integer 		• Number of the block to be justified.
     
doHJust
Boolean 		  Adjust box width to the real size of the picture. (Picture box only)
     
doVJust
Boolean 		  Adjust box depth to the real size of the picture. (Picture box only)
     
maxhor
Points/tenths 		  Maximum width of bloc. (Picture box only)
     
maxver
Points/tenths 		  Maximum depth of box. (Picture box only)
     
LeftJustify
Boolean 		  Justification take place on the left. The right side of the box do not move. (Picture box only)
     
TopJustify
Boolean 		  Justification id done on the top side. The bottom do not move.
     

Note: Make sure that the last ligne in the block does not end with a carriage return. In this case, an extra blank line is added. This command is not yet implemented in the Adobe PageMaker version.

Example: [jv=1] Calculates the depth of block #1.
