Here's what we'll use in this episode: the Story Editor to edit long text comfortably without zooming, and Check Spelling to find typos. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the Complete Adobe InDesign Series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Editing small text directly on the page forces us to keep zooming in. The Story Editor displays text like a word processor, making editing faster.
Open the article file and click inside the text. Press Ctrl Y or choose Edit, Edit in Story Editor. A new window opens displaying the entire text in large, easy-to-read font.
The column on the left side of the Story Editor shows the paragraph style name for each paragraph. We can check if each title and content uses the correct style without looking at the layout.
Type changes in the Story Editor, for example, adding a sentence at the end of a paragraph. Changes are immediately visible on the page. The red overset line in the Story Editor marks text that doesn't fit in the frame.
Close the Story Editor and choose Edit, Spelling, Check Spelling, or press Ctrl Y. Make sure the text language is Indonesian. InDesign stops at unknown words and offers suggestions for improvement. For typos, choose the correct suggestion and click Change.
For terms or names that are actually correct, click Add to add them to the user dictionary and prevent them from being marked again.
Activate Edit, Spelling, Dynamic Spelling. Unknown words are underlined in red as you type, like in a word processor, making typos easy to spot. Done.
We've used the Story Editor with the style column, edited the text, and viewed the overset markers. Checked spelling with Check Spelling, used Change and Add, and enabled Dynamic Spelling. In the next episode, we'll create a quote pool and sidebar for long articles. Need a layout design for a magazine, book, brochure, product catalog, company profile, or annual report?
