In the Place dialog box, you can Shift-click to select multiple text files.
When you do this, the cursor is “loaded” with those files. You can then
click in text frames or on the page to import the text from each file. This
works well with content such as long captions that are saved in different
text files.
3.
Choose File > Place. In the Place dialog box, make sure Show Import Options is
not selected.
4.
Navigate to and select the Biking_Feature_JuneJuly2014.docx file in the Lesson06
folder, located inside the Lessons folder within the InDesignCIB folder on your
hard disk.
5.
Click Open.
The text flows from column to column, filling both text frames.
6.
Choose Edit > Select All to select all the text in the story.
7.
Click the Paragraph Styles panel icon at the right to display the panel.
8.
Click the triangle next to the Body Copy style group to display those styles.
9.
Click the Paragraph Indent style to apply it to the selected paragraphs.
10.
Choose Edit > Deselect All to deselect the text.
Now that you have changed the formatting, the story no longer fits. In the lower-
right corner of the text frame on the second page of the spread, you will see a red
plus sign (+) indicating overset text (additional text). Later, you will use the Story
Editor to resolve this.
