Extra Carriage Returns Specifies how InDesign imports extra paragraph returns. Choose
Remove at End of Every Line or Remove Between Paragraphs. If you select either of these,
you can select Keep Tables, Lists and Indents As Is to preserve the extra paragraph returns
associated with tables, lists, and indents.
Extra Spaces Replaces a specified number of spaces with a tab.
Microsoft Excel import options
InDesign does not support versions of Microsoft Excel 7.0 and earlier. To import a file from
an earlier version of Excel, open the file in a more recent version of Excel, and then save it
in an importable format.
If you select Show Import Options when placing a Microsoft Excel file, you can choose
from these options:
View Specifies whether to import any stored custom or personal views, or to ignore the
views.
Sheet Specifies the worksheet you want to import.
Cell Range Specifies the range of cells, using a colon (:) to designate the range (such as
A1:G15). If there are named ranges within the worksheet, these names appear in the Cell
Range menu.
Apply Default Spreadsheet Style Applies Excel's default style settings for the spread-
sheet to the imported cells. If you select this option, the Cell Alignment and Decimal
Places options are disabled.
Cell Alignment Specifies the cell alignment for the imported document.
Decimal Places Specifies the number of decimal places. This option is available only if
you select Decimal Cell Alignment.
Show Hidden Cells Includes any cells formatted as hidden cells in the Excel spreadsheet.
Tagged-text import options
You can import (or export) a text file capable of taking advantage of InDesign's formatting
capabilities by using the tagged text format. Tagged-text files are text files containing
information describing the formatting you want InDesign to apply. Properly tagged
text can describe almost anything that can appear in an InDesign story, including all
paragraph-level attributes, character-level attributes, and special characters.
For information on specifying tags, open the Tagged Text.PDF document, which is located
in the Tagged Text folder in the Adobe Technical Info folder on the InDesign CD.
The following options are available when you import a tagged-text file and select Show
Import Options in the Place dialog box.
If Text Style Conflicts Use Specifies which character or paragraph style to apply when
there is a conflict between the style in the tagged-text file and the style in your InDesign
document. Select Publication Definition to use the definition that already exists for that
style in the InDesign document. Select Tagged File Definition to use the style as defined
in the tagged text. This creates another style name, with "copy" appended to it in the
Style palette.
Show List of Problem Tags Before Place Displays a list of unrecognized tags. If a list
appears, you can choose to cancel or continue the import. If you continue, the file may not
look as expected.
