Re: 3.0 Wish List
THANKS for: fixing open-type small caps Two small wishes: Letter-Spacing . Usefull when setting headlines in all caps, as then one is supposed to loosen the space in between characters to increase readability. (EDIT: Glyph-Scaling ) Option to expand (stretch) and contract (condense) letters Thanks

Re: Request: A bit more Typographic Support!
Thank you, both solutions work. I could not find it, thank you. Alright, letter-spacing, did I miss that one too or is it missing in the program? Sometimes my eyes are blocked obviously.
