Subheadlines
Shortest title in the history of my blog.
It was Tuesday night, we just finished our final exam and I was all snuggled up under the covers and half-dreaming of the shitload of assignments that still had to be done. It was at that very moment, my dear readers, that I remembered I forgot to use Paragraph Styles to create the subheadlines. No, I just simply put them in seperate text boxes from the main body text.
On my final exam.
*cues obscene swear words*
The reason behind this simple error is: I had originally wanted to use them as picture captions, and in order to move them around the page in a flexible manner, I had to put them in seperate text boxes.
But of course that is unacceptable.
So today, dear readers, you will see a demo of me re-doing subheadlines!
The original, untainted, virgin body text (note how the subheadline is now INSIDE the main body text):
Highlight the whole thing, or just click anywhere on that paragraph. InDesign classifies anything that has been seperated by the Enter key a paragraph.
Predictably, I forgot the original numbers you had to insert between the Subheadline and Body Text. Screw that. Graphic designers improvise. In this case I put 0p9 because it looks amazing.
The final result:
Can we have a round of applause for me?
