key as you drag and drop text to remove formatting. You can also drag and drop text from outside InDesign (for example, from a Microsoft Word document), with the option to place the text into an existing text frame or create a new text frame. To drag and drop text from another program, arrange the source document window and the InDesign document window so you can see both, select text in the source document, drag it into the InDesign layout, and release the mouse button. Can I choose whether to retain formatting when I place text? When you import text using the Place command (File menu), select Show Import Options in the Place dialog box to control how formatting is handled. InDesign provides many options for preserving and removing formatting. When you paste text, you can retain or remove formatting. If you choose Edit > Paste, formatting is retained. If you choose Edit > Paste Without Formatting, any formatting applied to the copied text is removed, and the pasted text inherits the formatting of the destination. The Paste Without Formatting command works not only for text copied within InDesign, but also for text copied within other applications. 38 Adobe InDesign CS3 | Conversion guide what features does InDesign offer for checking spelling? Dynamic spell-checking and Autocorrect. If you select Enable Dynamic Spelling in the Spelling pane of the Preferences dialog box, InDesign automatically flags misspellings in real time in both the Story Editor and in layout view. You can also enable dynamic spell-checking by choosing Edit > Spelling > Dynamic Spelling, or you can right-click (or Controlclick in Mac OS) and then choose Spelling > Dynamic Spelling from the context menu. You can control what gets flagged (misspelled words, repeated words, uncapitalized words, or uncapitalized sentences) in the Spelling pane of the Preferences dialog box. Additionally, you can configure InDesign to automatically correct misspelled words as you type. To enable automatic spelling correction, choose Edit > Spelling > Autocorrect or select Enable Autocorrect in the Autocorrect pane of the Preferences dialog box. Versatile spelling dictionaries.

lists from text files for these dictionaries, and you can export dictionaries as text files. Can InDesign import word files? InDesign offers robust support for both Word and Rich Text format (RTF) files. For example, when you import a Word document or an RTF document, you have the option to rename styles (in case of a naming conflict), overwrite an existing InDesign style with the Word or RTF style, or map a Word or RTF style to an existing InDesign style. To access these style-mapping options, as well as several other options, choose File > Place, select a Word or RTF file, and then select Show Import Options in the Place dialog box. When you click Open, the Microsoft Word Import Options dialog box is displayed. In addition to setting style-mapping rules when importing Word documents, you can also save the settings you make in the Microsoft Word Import Options dialog box as presets. For example, if you receive Word files from several writers who use their own idiosyncratic styles, you can set up presets that automatically map those styles to your InDesign styles on import—a huge time-saver and extremely useful for book, newspaper, and magazine publishers.

Even save those style mappings as presets to streamline future import of similar content.

They are placed in InDesign using the original Word dimensions and similar position coordinates on the page. After you import an anchored object, you can control its placement within InDesign by selecting it and then choosing Object > Anchored Object > Options. C D Text and Typography 39
