Several weeks ago, I wrote a post about Nigel French’s Lynda.com course InDesign Typography, Part 1, wherein Nigel explored InDesign’s many type options related to “micro typography,” or the appearance of individual letterforms. Now that you’ve had some time to digest that one, here’s a second serving of typographic tips from Nigel, in InDesign Typography, Part 2. This time the focus is on “macro typography,” or how type is arranged on a page. In the free video below Nigel takes you through everything you need to know about flowing text. Check it out!
