reversed text style

Hello Dick,

If you're wanting to keep the 'reverse' text inside a line of text, you'll probably want to make them into drawn graphics on one of the reference pages, or import them as GIF/PNG graphics, and then paste them into your document, using anchored frames.

I am a stickler for simplicity in documents, and I've found that putting instructions in paragraphs can lead to confusion for some users.   For example: I've seen some documents (where [0] is a button graphic) which have instructions like:
	To get back to the menu, Press [0] [0] [0].
... and I've seen some trainees diligently type:  000.


Hope that helps
// Simon BUCH

Hi Simon,

The idea of installing a new typeface would be the most straight forward and simple solution if not that I too foresee printing problems. So after reading Rick's suggestion (which makes good sense: I didn't think of it!) I decided to rule that option out.

Back to Art Campbell's suggestion: if you do use a single cell table with black background, how do you then keep it in line with the remainder of the text like you can with an anchored frame? (Tables have no "at insertion point" anchoring position, anchored frames do.) Note that I am talking about a single word somewhere in the paragraph, not an entire paragraph. 

Vriendelijke groet / Kind regards,
