To capitalize the first letter of each word, choose Title Case.
•
To capitalize the first letter of each sentence, choose Sentence Case.
•
Note: The Sentence Case command assumes that the period (.), exclamation point (!), and
question mark (?) characters mark the ends of sentences. Applying Sentence Case may
cause unexpected case changes when these characters are used in other ways, as in abbre-
viations, filenames, or Internet URLs. In addition, proper names may become lowercase
when they should be uppercase.
To change all characters to uppercase, choose Uppercase.
•
Making characters superscript or subscript
When you choose Superscript or Subscript, InDesign applies a predefined baseline shift
value and a predefined type size to the selected text.
The values applied are percentages of the current font size and leading, and are based on
settings in the Text Preferences dialog box. These values do not appear in the Baseline
Shift or Size boxes of the Character palette when you select the text.
If you're using an OpenType font, you may want to take advantage of the OpenType
Superscript & Subscript and Numerator & Denominator attributes to create more elegant
type; see "About OpenType fonts" on page
To make selected type superscript or subscript:
Choose Superscript or Subscript in the Character palette menu.
To specify point size and shift increment for subscripts and superscripts:
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Text (Windows and Mac OS 9), or InDesign > Preferences >
Text (Mac OS 10).
2 For Size, type a percentage of the font size for superscripted and subscripted text.
3 For Position, type a percentage of the regular leading to specify how much the super-
script and subscript text will move. Then click OK.
Applying underline and strikethrough
The weight of an underline depends on the size of the type; the weight of a strikethrough
is a half point.
To apply an underline or a strikethrough to selected text:
Choose Underline or Strikethrough in the Character palette menu.
