I have been told that importing a Word doc into InDesign can be a pain, with great loss of formating, so although that option might be available somewhere, I am discouraged from doing it. One question: If justification is on a paragraph by paragraph basis, how is it possible that all paragraphs share the same common right margin position? In my simplistic way (read: uninformed) it sounds like each paragraph could have a different width??? This is probably not true, but help me!!!! ;-) Eilert -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
