Can't scroll to the edge of the image / bounding box / blue line in InDesign? - therefore you can't adjust the image? Well if the edge of your image is just off the screen then I have the solution for you.
To be honest this is something that use to annoy me all the time - especially when created large format print like roller banners. The edge of the image box would constantly be off the screen and it...

A common question I come across is 'can you make an image black & white (B&W) in InDesign without using Photoshop or another application or software', the simple answer is yes you can.
The slightly longer answer is that this process will allow you to make image appear black & white, but it will not convert your image to greyscale, that can still only be done with Photoshop or similar. So just bear in mind that this process will show...

To be honest apart from adapting the style of the number and the font, size, colour, etc I've never considered changing the full stop that follows the number when creating paragraph styles for a numbered list in InDesign. It never really bothered me until recently. I was putting together a contact sheet and the photos needed to be numbered. I wanted to use a paragraph style for this as photos are always being added or removed and it saves...

I'm going to show you a big time saver when resizing pages in Indesign CC. This is especially relevant if you are having to resize lots of pages or a document such as a brochure. Using this method you can do all the pages at once.
I have included a video and written step by step methods. As always I have tried to keep it as short and too the point as possible I hope you find it useful.
For this...

A problem that all InDesign CC users have come across is missing fonts - fonts not being recognised by InDesign.
Maybe you've installed the font and InDesign still doesn't recognise it.
When you try installing with font book it warns you of a serious error with the font.
Or maybe the font has been copied and pasted too many times and the font is corrupted and simply not installing.
Whatever the cause of your issue I intend to explain a quick and simple...
