I hope there is someone who can help as this is driving me nuts.

 

I am creating braiile signs that uses data merge to import text and images.  Importing etc is all OK.

 

My issue is that i cant get the images to left align.  They only want to centre align.  I ahvbe tried creating. a text box and embedding the imnage in that and then align paragraph but the symbols sill centre align within the image boundaries.  The only one tht works correctly is whennI have 4 symbols and i suspect that it is conicindence and still centre justfied.

Hello there.

 

I've a few tutorials on my site that use this sort of behaviour. Have a look here https://colecandoo.com/2012/02/19/going-beyond-stencil-letters/ and see if these examples are of assistance.

If the answer wasn't in my post, perhaps it might be on my blog at colecandoo!

Thanks Col

I think i saw one of your Youtubes on alignment (#7) and it was a Godsend.  Thank you for posting these.  Yours was the only place that had alignment which i though was a bit weird given it is a required thing!
