How do you type a dash em in FM12

[Fred Ridder]

Actually, Word is still capable of making that autocorrection. They just don't turn that option on as the default anymore. 

Go to the Word Options dialog and select the Proofing properties page. Click the big button for AutoCorrect Options, and the first item in the suggested replacement list box for the "Replace text as you type" feature is the 2 hyphens to en-dash replacement.

Thanks! I knew it had to be in there somewhere.
By the way, Word convert 2 hyphens to an en dash either anymore.

Tom,

An em dash in Frame is ctrl+q Shift+q

An en dash is ctrl+q Shift+p



The FrameMaker 12 User Guide has a table
of all the keystrokes for inserting special characters on page 664.

In earlier versions of Word, when you
typed 2 hyphens (--) it would automatically convert to a dash em. Is there
any way to do the same or similar in FM12?
