USING INCOPY CS4 228 Tables See also "Place (import) text" on page 91 Add text to a table You can add text, anchored objects, XML tags, and other tables to table cells. The height of a table row expands to accommodate additional lines of text, unless you set a fixed row height. You cannot add footnotes to tables. ❖ Using the Type tool , do any of the following: • Position the insertion point in a cell, and type text. Press Enter or Return to create a new paragraph in the same cell. Press Tab to move forward through cells (pressing Tab in the last cell inserts a new row). Press Shift+Tab to move backwards through cells. • Copy text, position the insertion point in the table, and then choose Edit > Paste. • Position the insertion point where you want to add text, choose File > Place, and then double-click a text file. See also "Resize columns, rows, and tables" on page 236 "Work with overset cells" on page 239 Add graphics to a table To add a graphic to a table in a standalone InCopy document, make sure that you're in Layout view. To add a graphic to a table in a linked InDesign document, use InDesign so that you have more control over resizing the text frame. For a video tutorial on placing images into a table, see www.adobe.com/go/vid0083. ❖ Do any of the following: • Position the insertion point where you want the graphic, choose File > Place, and then double-click the graphic's filename. • Copy a graphic or a frame, position the insertion point, and then choose Edit > Paste. When you add a graphic that is larger than the cell, the cell height expands to accommodate the graphic, but the width of the cell doesn't change-the graphic may extend beyond the right side of the cell. If the row in which the graphic is placed is set to a fixed height, a graphic that is taller than the row height causes the cell to be overset. To avoid an overset cell, you may want to place the image outside the table, resize the image, and then paste it into the table cell. Add table headers and footers When you create a long table, the table may span more than one column, frame, or page. You can use headers or footers to repeat the information at the top or bottom of each divided portion of the table. You can add header and footer rows when you create the table. You can also use the Table Options dialog box to add header and footer rows and change how they appear in the table. You can convert body rows to header or footer rows. Updated 29 April 2009
