Ever since switching to InDesign, this has been one of the very few things I have noticed that Quark does better. Do you know of any plugins that add this functionality to InDesign? Short of customizing the typeface, I know of no way to automatically kern pairs in InDesign on a document-wide basis. If InDesign let you apply kerning with a character style, then you could do it as a GREP style, but I've tried and it doesn't take.
It's great to hear you feature Quark's outstanding typographic tools! I having long pursued excellence in typography, and even have a website dedicated to quality typography (www.kernprose.com).
As a previous studio manager of a major Michigan Avenue, I have personally lamented the waning interest in quality typography. Using Quark's Kern Table editor, we developed and libraried entire tables of kerned fonts, allowing us to import professional tables that would take hours to build. This created unparalleled quality and consistency.
I have appreciated following your articles, and have learned much about the craft I love from them. It's great seeing Quark get some of the press it deserves.

Kerning Tables for InDesign
HI,
Ever since switching to InDesign, this has been one of the very few things I have noticed that Quark does better. Do you know of any plugins that add this functionality to InDesign? Short of customizing the typeface, I know of no way to automatically kern pairs in InDesign on a document-wide basis.

Any ideas?
