Horizontally Scale only part of returned text


EricC

Recommended Posts

I am using the Telephone Format Rule to return the word "Tel:" plus the phone number.

 

I only want the tag line "Tel:" to have a horizontal scale of 80%.

The actual phone number should not have any scaling applied (100%).

 

When I use the rule below and preview in FusionPro, the entire line is scaled 80% - the word "Tel:" AS WELL AS the phone number.

 

Can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Is this a bug?

Using FusionPro 9.0.3, Acrobat X Pro 10.1.7 and Windows 8 Pro.

 

// Rule-Tel1
// Formats Phone Number

var formatStyle01 = "$1.$2";              //simple 7 digit phone
var formatStyle02 = "$1.$2.$3";           //simple 10 digit phone
var formatStyle03 = "$1.$2.$3.$4";        //10 digit phone starts with 1
var formatStyle04 = "$1.$2.$3 ext.$4";    //10 digit phone with extension
var formatStyle05 = "$1.$2.$3.$4 ext.$5"; //10 digit phone starts with 1 with extension
var formatStyle06 = "$1.$2 ext.$3";       //7 digit phone with extension
var thisNumber = Field("Tel1");

if (thisNumber == "")
   return "";
else
   return '<magnify type=setwidth factor=80>Tel:</magnify><t>' + formatNumber(Trim(thisNumber));

I've never used the magnify tag before, but in the guide it mentions this tag is used "to perform copy-fitting on text that is already formatted with tagged-markup that changes character appearances". Not sure if that is part of your problem, but perhaps you could use the setwidth tag instead? Keep in mind that it has no closing tag so you would need to add a second tag to "reset" the width for the number.

Hi Eric,

I tried setwidth and got the same exact result.

 

And even though (as you mentioned) it's not needed, I wrapped the actual phone number around a SECOND <magnify> tag, setting it back to 100%. But that didn't work.

 

I'll try to play around with it some more but I keep looking at my code and it looks correct.

This isn't completely clear in the Tags Reference Guide, but the ending </magnify> tag does not revert the magnification settings until the start of the next paragraph. The behavior could be changed, but that's how it's always worked.

 

If you want to temporarily change an attribute of the text, and be able to change it back again before the end of the paragraph, you can use a <span> tag and then an ending </span> tag.

 

Unfortunately, the <span> tag does not give you the ability to modify the setwidth of the text directly like the <magnify> tag does.

 

However, the </span> tag will restore all the attributes of the text back to what was in effect when the initial <span> tag was issued. So, you can use the <magnify> and <span> tags together to achieve the effect you want, like so:

return '<span><magnify type=setwidth factor=80>Tel:</magnify></span><t>' + formatNumber(Trim(thisNumber));
