I think your out of luck I'm afraid...." Well, it's good to know that I didn't miss something! Thanks for taking the time to consider my problem.

I'm already using the book feature. Each main topic is a section of the book. But I need to be able to re-use each bill summary: once in the compilation and once as a stand-alone. However, many summaries are short and need to be flowed into the same story so saving each as an individual book...

I'm including a link to an example, so that my question can be more clearly understood: http://skyways.lib.ks.us/ksleg/KLRD/Publications/2009-supplement-to-prelsum.pdf What I need is a way to combine blocks of text (bill summaries) into a continuous document... but still preserve the...

Thank you. I have used all three of these methods (table cells, "masking" one border, line tools) My job is to design the templates and styles and let the secretaries do the actual input of text. (An "average" document has about 300 pages) The secretaries have had very little training with...

I am trying to recreate a very long document that was originally created in WordPerfect. It's mostly text, with bullets and "frames" around certain pieces of text. I'm using paragraph styles and for the most part, things are working well. HOWEVER....the "introduction" to each section is...

I work for a state research department which publishes a large amount of information on a very tight schedule. (Nothing we do would qualify as "high end" by any stretch of the imagination... but it IS necessary for these graphs to be readable! ) I don't have much control over the format of...

I'm still fairly new at InDesign. Using InDesign CS3. I need to place four small graphs on a page. The graphs came to me as a Powerpoint file. I right clicked on each slide and saved each as a TIFF. When I view (or insert) the TIFF in any other program, there are no borders. But when I...

So far, so good. I'm assuming that it's okay to skip the synchronizing? (Isn't the purpose of synchronization consistent styles throughout the book?) This book has so many sections and styles that I'm a little bit afraid to mess with styles at this point. The original folder contained one...

I "inherited" an "indb" (book) file that was created by someone else. Things are very disorganized. Unfortunately, the person who set all of this up left, and the secretaries who had to finish the project had little or no training in InDesign. Sometimes they opened the individual files and...
