This Week in InDesign Articles, Number 5
The world is abuzz about InDesign! So much to read and so little time. Well, here are a few more tidbits for your must-get-to pile:
- James Dempsey reminded me about the Option/Alt-click trick, letting you replace one image (in a frame) with another (loaded in the Place cursor)
- Keith Gilbert had a good piece on How to Use Multi-Layered Illustrator Artwork in InDesign.
- I’m pleased to report that InDiscripts continues to offer cool free stuff to the InDesign community, including this chart of special characters!
- Our own Pariah Burke wrote a nice piece on social networks for creative professionals
- Rufus Deuchler pointed out an old Terry White article about using libraries versus snippets that should be digested.
Of course, there are a boatload of blog posts you may have missed, too! Don’t forget we have a thousand-or-so posts listed on our huge archives page and many of the most popular posts listed here. Enjoy!

That first one I knew at one time and then forgot. It’s such a pain to forget to check (I always uncheck it when I first place a file) the “replace selected item”, having to cancel the place and re-do the file selection process, especially when it’s multiple pages of a PDF.
By the way, is there a way to have that “replace selected item” unchecked by default?
The article on social networking was very useful. Thanks.
