Kerning of space in FrameMaker

[Peter Gold]

Greg:

I'm sure you realize that your custom kerning only works with the 
font you modify. You'd need to embed the font in PDFs you provide, to 
assure the same result for your recipients.

Have you considered replacing "final-f+space" sequences in your 
documents with something like "final-f+thin space+space," or 
"final-f+en space," to avoid the overhang?
