How to Caption All Images at Once in InDesign
Learn how to set a style for image captions in InDesign and then create static captions for all images in a document all at once.
In this “Three Minutes Max” video, Bart Van de Wiele shows us an easy way to create quick photo captions in InDesign that don’t “crash” into other text frames. And he doesn’t just assign them spread-by-spread, but across an entire document all at once!
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes (max!) to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
