• Change the character for bullets and numbering style

  Hello

  Under Bullets and numbers, I created a character style to customize the appearance of my chips. It wasn't quite right, so now I want to edit it. How can I do this? It seems that all I can do is add new styles. I use InDesign CC 9.2.2 (don't judge, I'm on a University computer) on a Mac.

  Thank you!

  Open the character Styles Panel and you can change it.

  Hello

  This looks like a bug. We will fix it in the next public release. In the meantime, you need to specify the meaning to the elements of the list directly instead of using a paragraph style.

  Sorry for the inconvenience.

• Problems with character and paragraph styles!

  Hello

  I have a problem to inDesign that I don't normally.

  (I work on a macbook pro)

  I'm adding a text in a template document. I have two character styles and the paragraphstyles.

  This is how I work:

  I place my text I have the text box. (placing a word document) First I get all of the italicized words in the text placed and they give a character style: italic. Then, I want to give a definition to the whole text. It is a 'regular' from the same font of type version. When I do that, all of the text get this pink-ish marking meens that the text has not been completely changed the style AND a little plus (+) next to the paragraph style accurs. Normally I just press alternative (alt) as I click the paragraph style and thus cancels the problem. BUT when I do that now all the text becomes italic - witch is not in the selected paragraph style. Why?

  I'm really lost how can I solve this problem - I don't want to create a new document because it is a model that I use each month for a magazine and normally it works.

  Would be - this code in the word document? Or what?

  Thank you!

  best,

  Sara

• Apply to a Style object that defines the style of paragraph and 'paragraph style' to the text block with another block of text?

  I am trying to automate the application of styles in a brochure. Each image has a name, title, telephone, email, city... style paragraph.

  Can I apply an object style that instantly sets the styles of each paragraph. However if I have the linked text boxes, the style of the object does not seem to affect the block of text, or one of the text boxes. Is there a way to get around this?

  I just looked upward: this feature is limited to "simple, smooth text frames."

  I'm sorry.

• Print descriptions of paragraph and character Style...

  InDesign: is it STILL possible to print the specifications of type through the character and paragraph Styles?

  You should not! Essential elements for a cool job!

• What happens if I don't use paragraph and character Styles?

  I was told that do not use character and paragraph styles makes the files 'unstable '. So everything we manually change is in danger to be changed apparently at random. I have worked in hundreds of InDesign files for several months and have never seen a problem where this is indeed the case. I did a quick search online and on these forums, but I've not found anything directly related to what will happen if the styles have been changed manually. So, what happens if you do not use character and paragraph styles?

  I don't see that there is nothing "unstable" do not use styles, but as mentioned, they make your life easier by providing a single place to make changes that affect all the text containing the tag with the style.

  An important feature/reason for the use of the character styles is that they take precedence over paragraph styles, if a particular word needs to be styled differently to surrounding text, bolded or italicized, for example, you can add a character style that modifies only the bold or italic style type. Subsequent changes to the paragraph style will affect the face and size, if these attributes are changed, but leave your word in bold or italics, bold or italic. If you use "local formatting" (select the word, and apply the formatting) you may lose when styles to change or remove overrides, which is probably the 'random change' you have heard.

• Cannot find the paragraph style, which is apparently in use

  Hello.

  I'm working on a document with the text that I have imported the word. After you have applied all my character and paragraph styles, I check to see if there are styles original Word still in use. Can I do a search/replace for those still persistent and change them to mine. There is a paragraph style, named normal, what don't get me. It seems to be in use - when I try to remove it, he asks what style should be used to replace it. It shows also upward on the Panel of cross references when I try to create a new cross reference. I tried to change its definitions to something with the big guy and a strong color, so I could find it easily on the pages, but not luck. When I use find/replace to the style, I get the message "cannot find match". I even tried the police search of the style, I do not use on my styles, but nothing appears. Am I missing something?

  Thank you.

  The next thing to try would be exporting to IDML. See remove minor corruption by exporting

• Any paragraph styles are not the same as the original document

  I use InDesign CC 9.2 x 64

  I have the document with a series of master pages and paragraph styles. I wanted to move them in a blank document, as well as a few pages of the original document.

  In the new document I loaded master pages and paragraph styles, and everything seems to be okay. I moved a few pages in the document and paragraph styles do not seem to get the same thing. It seems greater than in the original document line spacing, but I can't find what the problem is

  It's really annoying, since the point of the whole of paragraph styles, it's that they ensure consistency!

  Any ideas?

  Thank you!

  What can go wrong with it is that the paragraphs are aligned on the grid of reference set in the preferences.
  Two different documents can have two different settings for it. Check the baseline grid in preferences and adapt one to the other setting.

  I've been there. It was a long time ago, but I still remember the confusion and despair.

  First, know that you will survive and ask what was the hang up. If you are a special person, do you promise never to forget what was the hang up, then you can help others when it is time to pay back the community.

  Think about how things work without paragraph styles. When you want a paragraph to look a certain way, regardless of the software you have used to work with text, you select ("highlight") some text and look for ways to style it (check its appearance, or 'attributes' or 'features' or 'features'.) You choose a font (Helvetica, Times, etc.) weight ("BOLD", extra bold, light), a color of text, an angle (italic, Roman), the space between the lines ("leading,") space between paragraphs (space before, space after,) and so on. Without named styles, you must select each property in a menu or a list when the text is selected. The next time that you want this same paragraph look, you can recall everything you did and repeat with newly selected text, or you can copy and paste one that looks, then change the text inside.

  However, it does take long to realize that he has to be a way to save these settings and pull them up and slap them on the other selections, with a few clicks and make sure that you don't forget to do something. Creation and registration of collection of a paragraph of the property settings are called "define a style." Software for manipulation of more modern text can save paragraph styles that apply to full paragraphs, and they can also save character styles, which apply to parts of the text in a paragraph. A paragraph of normal text can be used a style called 'body '. You can select a bunch of miscellaneously style paragraphs and apply the body style for them with a single click on the paragraph styles list.

  If you decide that you would like the body to look different style, you can redefine, and all paragraphs in the active document using the body style change to show the look of the new definition.

  In a body paragraph, you can have same bold italic bold text and italictext and so on. You can always select text in a paragraph and find a menu that offers characters bold or italic in the selected text. But you can also create a character for each of these apparitions style and apply them to music. As for paragraph styles, character styles are more controllable and more useful than simply highlight and apply a property. If, you use a character style that applies "BOLD", you can change its character style definition and all the places it is used in a document will show the change.

  Here is an example which shows the usefulness of the styles of characters named:

  According to the standard style for writing guides that have been developed before computers, scientific names, the words of the foreign language in a host as the English language, the titles of the documents, movies and poems and a few other things are supposed to be italicized. With character styles, you can create and apply styles of characters for each category of text in italics. In this forum, * sapiens, The Pentagon Papers and Gone With the Wind, all look the same, but with character styles, styles, named 'scientificName', 'bookTitle', and 'filmTitle', can distinguish between texts in italics. Sometimes, you gotta be able to treat these things differently, and styles is a way to keep them organized.

  Most writing tools can create a style named for the existing sample. So, if you have customized a paragraph for your body text, you can use InDesign to set the body of the paragraph in the example chosen style.

  Google search for terms like 'InDesign create the paragraph of the selection style,' "InDesign redefine style', 'Create a character style, InDesign' and"InDesign tutorial character and paragraph styles."

• Table of content not applying paragraph styles do not

  Hello

  Intensely frustrated, but assuming that I have do just something stupid I can't understand.  I use CS4.

  Try to make a table of contents.  Everything will import correctly in the table of contents - I because of paragraph styles to the different levels, I've wanted to, etc., including some of the hidden layers.  All these import correctly.

  I did the paragraph styles for the real KNOCK out and filled in the box for each to apply to the specifc level.  The basic indentation formatting etc. I am applying work, but features and the font size will not change.

  When I look at each paragraph style, everything entered in the way that I want it to be (that is, text formatting, etc.).  I can go to my OCD manually and click on the section of text and apply the style to the paragraph I want and apply the recesses, etc., but the formatting of the text is not.  I have to go to character styles to make it work.

  If I go into another section of my document, apply that same paragraph text style, then all (characteristics of fonts & renfonçait changes etc.).

  Looks like you can have styles of characters applied to text in the document itself, and these character styles are preserved. Local formatting and character styles applied in the paragraphs are retained when you make the table of contents.

  Many users doesn't seem to understand the distinction between character and paragraph styles, too and using character styles incorrectly. I'm not saying that it's true for you, necessarily, but you should undersand this character styles are used to change the font attributes for bit isolated from the text in a paragraph. The basis for the type specification is part of the paragraph style, and there should be no reason to apply a style of character with the exception of special cases - some words or characters - in the paragraph. Text most will have no style applied character.

• Remove the imported chips and replace them by paragraph Style

  I imported a large number of documents to PDF and I need to remove the text format for the numbering of lettering and balls and replace them with paragraph styles. I find it difficult to arrive at a text or grep search and replace for it.

  So far I managed to assign bullets paragraph style, but I can't seem to remove the imported point. This is my poor attempt a search and replace. I guess it's possible to do it also for lettering and numbering?

  

  and that's what it looks like after the change with the ball remaining.

  

  Good question! Can anyone chime in with the 1-step process, but it is darn fast than two, especially if you save the first query:

  • Search: Bullet tab
  • Change of: Para style balls
  • All changes

  

  • Click on the trash can to delete the paragraph style
  • All changes

  

  Fact.

  

  With GREP, you might find one or several characters followed in a tab at the beginning of a paragraph (^. + ^ t) to locate any list, but you would need to set the style of bullets to bullets, the style of numbering of numbers and the AlphaNumbering style to the letters, so I don't see a benefit.

• How to insert bullets in the middle of a paragraph style?

  For my business, I create auto-generated CVs. Due to the limitations of the program used to automatically generate the CV, I can only use a paragraph style nested throughout the entire document. That's what I would like to a paragraph style to look like:

  COMMERCIAL:

  Clinic OVO, Montreal (Quebec)

  • Renovation of the clinic, 2008

  Role: Project Manager

  Merck, Kirkland (Quebec)

  • Building 5, 7 & 8 - existing office renovation & expansion, 20 04

  I know how to insert a hyphen at the beginning of a paragraph style, but how indicate I want chips to start on the 3rd line of the paragraph and stop 2-the last line of the paragraph?

  You will need to enter manually. Styles cannot add text, only format.

  Automated bullets are only accessible to the general public for the start of a paragraph and cannot apply to the middle. You can use find/replace to add, possibly, but it doesn't look like me you have a model that is sufficiently well defined to do any sort of work of automation.

• Impossible to format document with several paragraph styles and notes

  I'm working on a document where I have several text boxes on the same page. The text boxes reflect implemented different paragraph styles so that they will autopopulate in my table of contents. However, I need to add notes to this document. I find that the notes are at the end of the text box to which they apply to, and if I had to put a note in two different text boxes on the same page, both start at 1.

  Is it possible to manage notes in several text boxes? Or, if not, is it possible that I can attach my table of contents for the styles of characters instead of paragraph styles?

  Thank you!

  Looking at your screen shot in post #2, I see no reason to require individual images. You can manage every bit of this formatting in a unique setting using the styles section to control alignment, and dashes.
