Is there an action or check to see if there is any text falling in the...
I thought from only 2021 but I will check with the IT dept if they plan to do an install. I'm out today so I'll check back with them tomorrow. Thank you abc.
Thanks all for the help. I got an email from our programming guru and he came up with a Javascript to accomplish what the prepress team needed. I'll check into to it later.
