InDesign Secrets Video: Finding the Right Font

In the latest episode of InDesign Secrets on lynda.com, Anne-Marie Concepción shares some great tips and tricks for using InDesign’s fonts menus (found in the Control panel, Type menu, and Character panel).

In the video, Anne-Marie shows the new features for searching fonts and creating a group of favorite fonts in InDesign CC. Both are hugely helpful when you have a large collection fonts—which nowadays is like saying you have a pulse. And she covers older, pre-CC features that allow you to customize your Font menus by setting the order and number of recently-used fonts, and showing or hiding font previews (which can be great for freeing up screen real estate if you usually work on a small screen, like I do). And there are more cool tips as well. I watched the video twice to make sure I didn’t miss any.
