Anne-Marie and I have been on our first-ever indesignsecrets “offsite meeting” in Salt Lake City, Utah. It’s a very pretty city in a valley between large mountains. I’d rather be here in the winter, when I could get some skiing in. But there was no time for fun this week. Instead, we’ve been planning, cogitating, reviewing, and generally getting a sense of what new cool things we can bring you. I think you’ll like it!
In the meantime, the blog has been a bit quiet (thanks Fritz for keeping the fires burning). But I’ve been monitoring the InDesphere anyway, and have a few jewels to pass on:
- Colorado’s Erica Gamet is the newest trainer to fall prey to the joys of GREP.
- I’ve been encouraging Adobe to add Photoshop-like image adjustments (“make this image look better!”) in InDesign for years. Now Epical has a solution that looks promising.
- Unless you’ve been living inside a giant InDesign box, you know that Apple’s Snow Leopard (Mac OS 10.6) shipped today. I know I’m supposed to always be on the cutting edge, but to be honest, I’d rather wait until the inevitable 10.6.1. But the features certainly look appealing.
- I can’t figure out what to do with this script from InDiScript, but it’s cool: It converts footnotes back into text inside the text story. Let me know below how you use it!
- Do you live in Brazil? Check out the InDesign conference in Brazil! I’m sure it’ll be awesome. Wish I could be there.
- Jim Felici wrote a nice piece about the two-spaces-after-punctuation problem on creativepro. Should you type two? One? Check it out.
I can’t wait to see what happens next week! In the meantime, my flight home is about to start boarding, so I’d better wrap this up. Enjoy!
