30 CHAPTER 2 Making the Switch from PageMaker to InDesign Wrapping text around objects Like PageMaker, InDesign lets you apply text wrap to objects to prevent text from flowing over and obscuring them. In InDesign, you apply text wrap using the Text Wrap palette (Window > Type & Tables > Text Wrap). Soufflés have long been regarded as difficult, temperamental, and not to be attempted by the faint of heart. True enough, traditional soufflés are not always a walk in the park, and results can vary from sublime to subpar, but fear not gentle reader, for we have the soufflé recipe for you. What helps to make this soufflé just a little more fool proof than most, is that it isn't really a true soufflé at all, but stay with me here because, when all is said and done, no one will know but you. The trick lies in the layers of filo dough spread throughout the mixture that help to support the batter by more evenly distributing the weight throughout the construction and baking. This results in a soufflé that is nearly "fallproof" and helps to guarantee more predictable results from the oven to your table. This is particularly helpful in the case of this recipe, as it is served chilled, and so a much longer opportunity for trouble to occur is built in than with a soufflé served straight from the oven. Text Wrap palette in InDesign InDesign provides several options that let you specify exactly how you want text to wrap: • To prevent text in a specific text frame from wrapping, use the Ignore Text Wrap option in the Text Frame Options dialog box. • To prevent text from wrapping around objects on hidden layers, use the Suppress Text Wrap When Layer is Hidden option in the Layers palette. • To prevent text above a wrap object from wrapping, use the Text Wrap Only Affects Text Beneath preference in the Preferences > Text dialog box. For more information about wrapping text, see InDesign Help. Note: Text on a page will not wrap around objects on a master page. To force text wrap to apply, detach the wrap object from the master page and move it to the document page instead. (For details, see InDesign Help.) Positioning inline graphics PageMaker and InDesign provide similar controls for adjusting the position of inline graphics; however, the default position of inline graphics is different in the two programs. In PageMaker, inline graphics are positioned such that the lower third of the graphic is below the text baseline and the upper two-thirds are above it. In InDesign, when baseline leading (the default) is selected, the bottom of an inline graphic rests on the baseline of the text (not below it as in PageMaker). You can move the inline graphic up or down from the baseline using baseline shift.
