Hi Framers,

 

I have a structured FrameMaker 2017 document that has been translated to Simplified Chinese. Some of the cross-reference formats have double quotes in them, like

 

See “<$paratext>” on page <$pagenum>.

 

The text has been translated but the quotes and building blocks are still there. The problem is that with the Chinese there are sometimes line breaks after the open quote and before the close quote, depending on where the cross-reference falls on the line. For example, the close quote in the text below is on the second line by itself instead of bring the whole quoted text down with it.

”

The same thing happens if an open quote falls as the end of the line; it stays there and the rest of the quoted text moves to the next line. Is there a way to prevent these line breaks? Thank you very much.
