WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0 00:00:06.560 --> 00:00:08.730 Hi there. In this video, 00:00:08.730 --> 00:00:11.565 we're going to look at bringing in texts into InDesign. 00:00:11.565 --> 00:00:14.490 Look at some special features when we're bringing in from something 00:00:14.490 --> 00:00:17.775 like Microsoft web with a top one here brings through all of formatting, 00:00:17.775 --> 00:00:20.760 that wasn't weighed at head, Italics and bolds, 00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.120 and this version here where it comes in all scrubbed and cleaned. 00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:25.545 Both versions are useful. 00:00:25.545 --> 00:00:27.765 Let's look at how to do those. 00:00:27.765 --> 00:00:29.745 First of all, get and delete 00:00:29.745 --> 00:00:32.390 our Lorem Ipsum that we had there before because we've got the copy. 00:00:32.390 --> 00:00:33.725 Now, I'm going to bring it in, 00:00:33.725 --> 00:00:37.400 and the easiest way is probably just to open up the file in Word and copy and paste it. 00:00:37.400 --> 00:00:39.260 There's nothing wrong with that, but you probably don't need 00:00:39.260 --> 00:00:41.450 me to show you how to copy and paste text. 00:00:41.450 --> 00:00:43.400 But the other way you can do it in InDesign 00:00:43.400 --> 00:00:45.605 without having to open up Word, so you don't have Word. 00:00:45.605 --> 00:00:47.675 You can go with a cursor flashing here. 00:00:47.675 --> 00:00:51.220 We can go to "File and go to place like we did images, 00:00:51.220 --> 00:00:53.295 and then here under "O3 Newsletter", 00:00:53.295 --> 00:00:54.715 there's one called "Article 1. 00:00:54.715 --> 00:00:59.090 I'm going to click "Open', you can see it's bordered all through into InDesign. 00:00:59.090 --> 00:01:01.310 One of the things that's done by default is that it's 00:01:01.310 --> 00:01:03.725 kept the formatting that was in Word. 00:01:03.725 --> 00:01:05.360 But say you don't want that, you don't want the bolds 00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:07.400 and italics because there's a lot of rubbish in there. 00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:09.545 Let's say I'm going to undo it. 00:01:09.545 --> 00:01:13.505 Well, you'll also notice is when I "Undo' the axes not completely gone. 00:01:13.505 --> 00:01:17.180 It's actually just ended up in my cursor and just a wade quick. 00:01:17.180 --> 00:01:20.015 Actually, what I'm going to do is instead undoing, 00:01:20.015 --> 00:01:22.565 I'm going to signal that takes in, just delete it. 00:01:22.565 --> 00:01:24.110 Now, get my cursor back in there. 00:01:24.110 --> 00:01:27.470 I'm going to go to the W key, so you can see the box raised here. 00:01:27.470 --> 00:01:29.300 Let get back to him, 00:01:29.300 --> 00:01:31.685 and let's go to "File "Place", 00:01:31.685 --> 00:01:33.320 but we're going to look at a little extra, 00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:35.420 but this is why it's quite nice to use 00:01:35.420 --> 00:01:38.210 file-place rather than just copying and pasting from Word, 00:01:38.210 --> 00:01:40.040 as this is the options down here. 00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:41.840 I click on it, without opening it, 00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:47.010 I click on "Options", and I'm going to go show input options, and click "Open". 00:01:47.010 --> 00:01:50.600 It looks complicated, but basically what I want to do is this one, 00:01:50.600 --> 00:01:54.320 which says remove all the styles and text from Word. 00:01:54.320 --> 00:01:57.875 Bring it in, you'll notice that it's just plain old text, 00:01:57.875 --> 00:01:59.650 scrubbed of all the formatting. 00:01:59.650 --> 00:02:02.300 Codes. One of the other ways of bringing in texts, 00:02:02.300 --> 00:02:04.910 it's the same way with a slightly different technique. 00:02:04.910 --> 00:02:06.200 We're going to use" File", "Place" box. 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:07.985 If I have nothing selected, 00:02:07.985 --> 00:02:09.620 and I delete this. 00:02:09.620 --> 00:02:14.140 Nothing selected, click on the "Background black arrow" and go to file-place. 00:02:14.140 --> 00:02:16.410 I nearly the same options are on, 00:02:16.410 --> 00:02:19.185 so I'm going to make sure it says show in put options, which is great. 00:02:19.185 --> 00:02:23.150 But when I hit "Article 1" and click "Open" now because I 00:02:23.150 --> 00:02:27.215 don't have that textbooks are already on the page and have my cursor in it. 00:02:27.215 --> 00:02:28.925 Something slightly different is going to happen. 00:02:28.925 --> 00:02:31.010 I'm going to make sure, I remove styles, perfect. 00:02:31.010 --> 00:02:33.305 But you can see my cursor is loaded down, 00:02:33.305 --> 00:02:36.865 and what I can do is just click "Hold" and drag out a box. 00:02:36.865 --> 00:02:38.550 We end up at the same place, 00:02:38.550 --> 00:02:40.260 It depends on what comes natural to you. 00:02:40.260 --> 00:02:43.820 Do you like to draw the textbox first and then heavy cursor run and place it? 00:02:43.820 --> 00:02:47.210 Or just go to file-place and make the textbox at the exact same time. 00:02:47.210 --> 00:02:48.470 That's often what I do, 00:02:48.470 --> 00:02:50.810 but everyone's a little different for that one. 00:02:50.810 --> 00:02:53.265 So that's bringing in texts from Microsoft Word, 00:02:53.265 --> 00:02:55.560 or pretty much any old text document. 00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:59.910 Now, let's make some columns and things. See you next video.
