I have to say I’m disappointed. Here we are, well into the 21st century and instead of having robot servants to do all our work, we seem busier and more stressed than ever, juggling tasks and racing to meet (or at least not completely blow) our deadlines. Forget Iron Man, if Tony Stark would just sell us all copies of J.A.R.V.I.S., he’d save the world.
But alas, the only super heroes I know are David and Ann-Marie, and while they don’t fly, they do possess incredibly powerful tips and techniques for InDesign users. One such technique is on display in the video below, from the InDesignSecrets series at Lynda.com. In the video, David shows how to use the Apply Next feature to save you tons of time while formatting text perfectly and consistently. If you work with long documents, this is Must See Video. Check it out, it just might save your world some day.
