InDesign
- frames
multiple columns
linkable to other frames (threading)-> flowing text
movable,sizable
auto fit to content
- baseline offset Ascent
The height of the “d” character in the font falls below the top inset of the text frame.
Cap Height
The top of uppercase letters touch the top inset of the text frame.
Leading
Use the text’s leading value as the distance between the baseline of the first line of text and the top inset of the frame.
X Height
The height of the “x” character in the font falls below the top inset of the frame.
Fixed
Specify the distance between the baseline of the first line of text and the top inset of the frame.
Min
Select a minimum value for the baseline offset.
- adding text typing, pasting (with(out) style info), placing
- selecting text double,triple,quadruple,quintuple clicks
- show hidden characters
- glyphs (Open Font!) via glyph panel automatically in current font list of recently used create own customized glyphs sets
- special characters
- quotation marks specifiy which ones to use for different languages
- white spaces different sizes
TYPOGRAPHY
- character palette
- General:
- typeface family
- typeface (maps, when family is changed), NO software approximation available
- style
- leading
- tracking
- kerning
- manual
- optical pair kerning (based on calculated space between chars)
- metrics (pairs defined in font set)
- horizontal & vertical scaling
- baseline shift
- skew value
- superscript
- subscript
- optical margin alignment (mostly: punctuation marks outside frame -> text even)
- OpenTypeStuff:
- contextual replacements
- type styles: all caps, small caps (auto mapping to predesigned), strike-through, etc…
- ligatures (auto substitution)
- paragraph palette
- composing engines (single or multiple lines)
- justification, 7 versions, +(set word and char. spacing ranges),
- alignment
- hyphenation (extensive settings)
- drop caps
Effects
- text to path
- inline graphics
- text wrap (in conjunction with paths!)
- gradients
