i.t.i.p. Tip – InDesign

The "Non-Joiner"

What? A "non-joiner"? What's this? Actually, this is another meta character - like the discretionary hyphen, for example - which has a neat functionality: it prevents two characters from being put together to a so-called ligature.

An example: You type "rifle". InDesign automatically combines the "f" and the "l" to the ligature "fl". If you want to suppress this, just type the "non-joiner" between the "f" and the "l".
