URGENT Help Needed.

Yesterdays News — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 22:56:58 -0800

Hello everyone,

I have a slight problem when I need to place text (in this case numbers) on top of an object with a rounded corner. The problem I am faced with is when the numbers go OVER the object, though I'd like them to stay IN the object frame. I can't seem to find a solution to this problem.

Here is a pic of my problem (I altered it in paint to show you what I mean):

I work with InDesign CS3.

Thanks in advance,

Text Alignment for Editorial?

cmgray — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 13:59:31 -0800

Hi,

I am creating a newsletter in InDesign, and it is very type-heavy. This is the fist time that I am setting type editorial-style, and I'm wondering if there are any rules about how to do so in InDesign. My main question is about aligning the text to the baseline grid by pressing the little button at the bottom of the Paragraph Panel that has horizontal lines that are aligned, which is adjacent to a button that has horizontal lines that are not aligned with one another. I'm first setting the baseline grid to the same PT value at the leading. This makes the text look great.

Is this the correct way to set type for editorial? Is this how it's done at magazines and newspapers?

The problem that I have with aligning type this way is this: if I want header text to be a bit further away from the body text (and out of line with the baseline grid), I have to highlight that line and click the button that releases text form being aligned to the baseline grid. Is this the right way to get this effect? On one page, I'm spacing headers throughout the page by un-aligning them to the baseline grid, but the very top header is too far away from the body text - moreso than the other headers. This seems to be because the actual body text is aligned to the baseline grid and ID is trying to compensate for the spacing difference.

Basically I'm wondering if there is a better way to go about setting type for editorial, or if I am on the right track.

Thanks!

Chloe

Lead lettering supplies

Kodiak3000 — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 09:59:37 -0800

Hi, New to the forum, and still not sure I'm in the right place.

Does anybody know where I can find old lead typsetting letters - the kind they (used to) use to typeset newspapers and books?

Short of that, do you know where I can find other reversed letters? I'm trying to make a cast resin sculpture which needs a message written on the bottom...

Thanks
