In InDesign, go to Type > Show Hidden Characters. The first step is to reveal the Hidden Characters that denote every invisible space and break in typography (these are everywhere, not just in InDesign). (Exhibit A: Note that InDesign’s Dynamic Spelling does not like Lorem Ipsum.) Clients will pick up on that glaring detail, so the best solution is to have InDesign remember the date for you.Ĭlick inside your desired text frame to set up an automatically updating timestamp, then go to Type > Text Variables > Insert Variable > Modification Date. Nothing is more vexing than pouring hours into perfecting a presentation, only to notice that the first page is labeled with the wrong date.

This function is a huge timesaver for designers who regularly use and update client-facing presentation templates. Note that these underlines aren’t visible in Preview, so use the keyboard shortcut ( W) to return to normal screen mode. You’ll know it’s enabled when there’s a checkmark next to it in the menu, and you observe red underlines below typos. To turn on Dynamic Spelling, go to Edit > Spelling If you’re designing a text-heavy brochure or booklet, enabling Dynamic Spelling is the simplest, one-and-done solution for spotting and preventing typos before you run a spell check ( command + I) or hand your design off to a proofreader.
Even if your content was proofread before it came to you for layout, it’s your responsibility to ensure no errors were introduced during the design phase.
