WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: InDesign Styles!
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Text styles help you save time and effort while you work on large documents. Learn how to create, edit, load, and delete paragraph and character styles in InDesign. You can manage style overrides.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will perform a series of lessons and we will create our yearbook!!
Let's change a setting!

EDIT>Preferences>File Handling

Let's learn how to add text to your InDesign projects.
Select the TYPE Tool:
Select the Type Tool in the Tools panel on the left.
On the document, press and drag to create an area for text. This is called a Text Frame.
After you draw a text frame, a cursor will appear in the text frame,
In capital letters (hold the shift key down) type DESIGN TALKS
Select the Selection Tool:
White cursor and Green line shows alignment:
Select the Selection Tool (the black Arrow) in the tools panel on the left and move the pointer over the text.
Drag the text so it lines up at the left edge of the orange line.
The pointer should turn white and a green line might appear on the left edge of the frame, telling you it's aligned with that line.
The GREEN line is a SMART guide which is useful when aligning content.
Text will wrap when text frame is too narrow to fit in one line.
Red + shows telling you the text no longer fits:
Click and drag the lower right corner of the text frame.
Pull the bottom right handle to the left, narrow enough to make the text "wrap".
If you drag and make the text frame too small to fit the text, a red plus (+) will show in the lower right corner, telling you the text no longer fits.
This is called Overset Text.
Drag the bottom right corner to the right to snap with the edge of the line. Smart guides should show!
Drag that same handle to make the frame larger so you can see all of the text and so that the right edge snaps with the right edge of the line below it.
You should see smart guides help while doing so!
Double click the text to switch to the Type Tool
