•Paragraphs that span and split columns: Paragraphs can now span
multiple columns within a multi-column text frame, without the need
to create an additional threaded text frame. Paragraphs can also be set
to split columns into multiple sub-columns. Both of these behaviors
are paragraph aributes, and can be part of a paragraph style deni-
tion.
Span and Split Columns
Paragraphs can now span
multiple columns of a multi-
column frame. You can also
split a single column into
multiple sub-columns.
•Track Text Changes: If there are multiple collaborators on a docu-
ment, you can now track the text changes introduced, by activating
Track Changes. Choose Window > Editorial > Track Changes, then
choose Enable Tracking in All Stories from the panel menu. Click in
text, then choose Edit > Edit in Story Editor. Markups appear only in
the Story Editor, not in the layout view, however, changes in either
view are tracked, and the layout reects the cumulative changes. If the
document is printed, the current appearance of the layout is rendered.
Changes can be accepted or rejected in the Story Editor view, or in the
Track Changes panel.
Track Changes
When Track Changes is activated,
markups and alterations from
multiple editors are highlighted
when the text is viewed in the
Story Editor. e layout (normal)
view of the document reects the
results of all edits; markups are
only displayed in the Story Editor.
•Background Export: Exporting to IDML (InDesign Markup Language) or
print PDFs are now background processes, freeing you up to continue
working in InDesign. To view progress, choose Window > Utilities >
Background Tasks. Multiple documents can be queued up for PDF
export. ere is no option to make print PDF export a foreground pro-
cess: To ensure that you’re aware of the export process, you may elect to
keep the Background Tasks panel open. Note that export to the Interac-
tive PDF format (inappropriate for print) is not a background process.
•Mini Bridge: Mini Bridge is a subset of Adobe Bridge that is available
as a panel within InDesign, allowing you to navigate your le system
and preview les as thumbnails. You can drag and drop les from Mini
Bridge to InDesign to place text and graphics into a document (this is
the equivalent of using File > Place). You can also drag objects into
Mini Bridge to create snippets.
•Live Captions: Captions can now be generated from metadata em-
bedded in graphics. To set up the recipe for captions (data elds to be
used, paragraph style to be applied, etc.), choose Object > Captions >
Caption Setup. To generate the caption text frame, select the frame
containing the graphic and choose Object > Generate Live Caption (or
Generate Static Caption). Live captions update when the parent graph-
ics frame content is updated, but because live captions are generated
text, it is non-breaking and will not wrap. Static Captions allow text to
break, but do not update if the image or its metadata are altered. If a
text frame containing a Live Caption is repositioned so it does not
touch a graphics frame (or if the graphic is deleted from the frame), the
text frame will read “No intersecting link.”
