      I seem to remember a way to do this in XPress, but lord knows that was a long time ago (version 3 or 4). Let's say I have a headline text frame, and I type or paste in my healdine – is there a shortcut to size the type to fit in the text frame? I know I can use Command-Shift-> (and add the Option key to go up in larger increments), but is there a way to do it in one fell swoop?

      Don't know if it works with CS5.5 or 6, but you might want to take a look at this script: https://in-tools.com/article/sc…..-indesign/

      What you're remembering from Quark certainly worked with images, and InDesign can do the same, but I don't recall if Quark could also auto-fit text as you suggest.

      Thanks, Bob. We may have had some kind of plug-in for XPress that I am remembering. Or I could be dreaming…
