Erica Gamet shares a dozen of the coolest tips and tricks she learned at CreativePro Week.

One of my favorite things about CreativePro Week (of which The InDesign Conference is a part) is squirreling away so many new nuggets of knowledge over the course of the event. I always come away with a new keyboard shortcut, a novel approach to a problem, or a different workflow option. Sometimes those gems get delivered from the stage in one of the sessions, but often I pick up new (or new-to-me) features from chatting with the attendees. It’s a great reminder that we’re all there to share the love of InDesign and the other great design tools, and that knowledge flows in all directions when you bring together so many creative minds. To keep the knowledge flowing, here are a dozen of the best tips I learned.

    Very useful tips! I use the “no language” option as a GREP style for part numbers that contain letters and numbers. I created a “no language” character style style, which I use as a GREP style “Use “no language” apply to \d”. This way I don’t have the spellcheck trying to check part numbers containing digits.
