Adobe 27510753 - InDesign CS2 - PC Switching Manual page 17

A new feature in InDesign CS2 lets you assign a baseline grid to individual text frames, which
enables you to mix multiple baseline grids on a single page or spread. To apply a baseline grid
to a selected text frame, choose Object > Text Frame Options. Use the controls in the Baseline
Options panel to specify the grid attributes.
The Grids panel in the Preferences dialog box (Windows: Edit > Preferences > Grids; Mac OS: InDesign > Prefer-
ences > Grids) lets you specify the attributes of a baseline grid and a vertical and horizontal document grid.
Creating custom guide sets
The Create Guides command (Layout menu) in InDesign CS2 lets you apply a set of evenly
spaced guides to the pages selected in the Pages palette. Columns that you create with the Create
Guides command are not the same as those you create with the Margins and Columns command
(Layout menu). For example, columns that you create by using Create Guides cannot control text
flow when you place a text file. Use the Margins and Columns command to create major column
divisions appropriate for autoflowing text, and use the Create Guides command to create column
grids and other layout aids for positioning objects. Note that the columns you create with the
Create Guides command are applied to the currently selected layer in the Layers palette.
Use the Create Guides dialog box (Layout > Create Guides) to apply evenly spaced guides to selected pages.
