1.
Zoom in to comfortably view the sidebar text frame on the left-facing page of the
opening spread. Make sure no objects are selected.
You edit text with the Type tool and thread (link) text frames with the Selection tool, but it
does not matter what tool is selected when you import text.
2.
Choose File > Place. At the bottom of the Place dialog box, make sure the three
options are deselected: Show Import Options, Replace Selected Item, and Create
Static Captions.
3.
Locate 05_LocalStats.docx, in the Lesson05 folder, and then double-click it.
The pointer becomes a loaded text icon ( ), previewing the first few lines of text in the
story you are placing. When you move the loaded text icon over an empty text frame, par-
entheses enclose the icon ( ).
4.
Position the loaded text icon over the placeholder text frame (below the text frame
containing the “local stats” subhead).
5.
Click to place the text.
6.
Using the Type tool ( ), click in the frame to edit the text. Choose Edit > Select
All to select all the text in the frame.
7.
Choose Type > Paragraph Styles to open the Paragraph Styles panel.
8.
Click on the paragraph style White Sidebar Text. (If necessary, scroll through the
Paragraph Styles panel to locate it.)
A plus sign (+), which indicates local overrides (variations from the paragraph
style), displays next to the paragraph style name because some of the selected text
is bold. While sometimes local overrides are undesirable, in this case they are fine.
