Join Tony Harmer for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding text, part of Accelerated Design with Comp CC and InDesign.
- Adding text as you saw briefly a couple of movies ago,…is very, very easy.…So from the icons at the top of the screen…on the right-hand side, I'm going to select the T,…the center one of those.…Most people understand, that involves text,…so if I tap there you can see that I can either add…Type Styles, which we'll be dealing with…in the next movie, from My Libraries,…or I can add my Text here.…So I'm going to tap to Add a Headline,…so we'll bring that out like so.…Pull up a headline on there, and then I'll tap again…and say Add a Sub-Head, so bring that out like so,…and then we'll tap up again, and we'll add a Paragraph,…like that, there you can see is the text.…
Now these don't have to stay exactly this way,…you can model them in a lot of ways.…So each one of these, I don't know if you noticed,…I did it pretty quickly, has a little graduated bar…just to the right-hand side of it.…So this allows me to change the size of the type,…I can drag that up and down, to change the size like so.…I can change the frame, and it populates with more text,…
