<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";">Thanks to Rick Quatro's excellent webinar on regular expression search and replace some time back I was able to construct the following reg exp search in FM 12 to remove a space occurring
at the end of a line right before the end of paragraph marker. I've been using for it for awhile. I'm sure others have constructed something similar, but for those of you who don't want to mess around and experiment:<br>
<br>
Find: (?<=.) (?=\x0a)<br>
<br>
Replace with nothing. Of course, the Regular Expressions option has to be checked in the Find/Replace dialog.<br>
<br>
Earlier versions of FrameMaker would allow you to replace a space followed by an end of paragraph, but you had to replace with the paragraph marker. That would result in your paragraph being formatted with the tag of the following paragraph which was often
not what you wanted.<br>
<br>
Hope this is useful to someone out there. I find that Word conversions often suffer from these extra spaces.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>

Craig</span></p>
