Dear Framers,
I have found (I believe it is) a bug) in FrameMaker in regards to kerning
pairs. 
I have FontLab and I, for example, kerned two characters which are the f and
the space. I did that because the f was "leaning over" to the right and was
touching the first letter of the word. For example: "of How" where f touched
the H even though there was space entered in between. 
So I opened the font and fixed the kerning pair of the f and the space. It
looked great. 
I install the font and the characters are still crashing. Of course the Pair
Kern was turned ON. 
Then I checked the same thing in MS Word and InDesign and when the kerning
was turned on, the kerning pair I did inside the font was applied and showed
up. 
But not in FrameMaker. 
Does anyone know about this and know how to handle it? Any plug-ins or
FrameScript for this?
Any data would be greatly appreciated.
Best, Greg
