Agremens - parties 1 and 2: formatting notes
Posted by lauren on 18 Nov 2009 in Academic
I just took a look at the Agremens online, and I noticed a few formatting issues. Most of these I have tried to correct on my own, but here is my to-do list:
- Right at beginning: "Philogame et Antigame" needs to be on one line. I attempted to fix this by changing the
rend
values (now I have the whole thing set at 17em;, the left margin being 2.5em and the right being 2em; text-indent I measured to be roughly 1.25em. - In the same vein, "A PARIS" is not all fitting on one line, nor is any of the paragraph coming after it. I will have to watch for this once the updated version is up on the server to see if my changes have corrected these issues.
- QUESTION: I use many
figDesc
s in order to describe the detailing around the first letter of a paragraph, etc. So far, when I am citing the text (eg. "Fleurs autour de la dédicace « Aux Dames ») I am simply copy-pasting guillemets from CharMap. However, I'm thinking there is a better way to do this. MH, would I use amentioned
tag? - The J.D.D.C. in the closer should be indented 7 or 8 em; I've been using a
text-indent
tag but it doesn't seem to be working. - MH, on p. 133 there is a giant space after the oversized "S" at the start of the paragraph... any idea why? I'm at a loss.
- p. 107 onwards: all the page numbers were appearing in the right margin instead of alternating and the header for each page was "Chagrins du Mariage", so I did a quick copy-paste on every even number/its heading and this should have corrected the problem.
- Finally, I also put in
hi rend=
s on the title page for the "Seconde Partie".
