CHAPTER 2

Making the Switch from PageMaker to InDesign

To apply underline and strikethrough type styles,

choose Underline Options or Strikethrough

Options from the Control palette menu (in

Character mode).

For more information about selecting a font,

see InDesign Help.

Working with character and paragraph

styles

Both PageMaker and InDesign let you save

a collection of text-formatting attributes in

a paragraph style to save time and ensure

consistency when formatting text in your

document. In addition, InDesign lets you deﬁne

character styles to quickly and uniformly apply

formatting to a range of text within a paragraph.

As with paragraph styles, any changes you make to

a character style affect any and all text that has the

character style applied.

If you miss the default styles that appear in

PageMaker, you can create a set of styles to use in

all new documents you create. Just close all

documents in InDesign, and then create the styles.

For more information about styles, see

InDesign Help.

Creating bullets and numbered lists

PageMaker includes a Bullets and Numbering

plug-in that lets you automatically insert bullets or

numbers before paragraphs. InDesign also lets you

create bulleted and numbered lists. (See “About

bulleted and numbered lists” on page 46.)

Troubleshooting missing fonts

With PageMaker’s font-matching system, an alert

message appears when you open a publication that

uses fonts not available on your system. You can

then substitute an available font for the missing

font.

InDesign offers similar capabilities but a different

approach. Rather than changing which font is

applied, InDesign tells you which fonts are

missing, and also retains the font assignment. Text

formatted with a missing font is temporarily

displayed in an available font. By default, InDesign

highlights the text in pink to make it easier for you

to spot problems. Missing fonts appear in brackets

in the Control and Character palettes and in a

Missing Fonts section on the Type > Font menu,

so you can tell exactly which fonts you need to

install in order to view the document correctly.

Pink-highlighted text indicates a missing font.
