2008 New Year's Resolutions:
Our Suggested List for InDesign Users
I'll find and learn how to use one new (to me) script and plug-in that helps my work.
I'll use paragraph and character styles properly.
I'll start placing PSD, AI, and PDF files instead of EPS.
I'll finally break my habit of typing double-spaces after punctuation.
I'll get into the habit of using the temporary Hand tool instead of the scroll bars when it makes sense.
I'll import XML and export XML at least once this year successfully, even if it's on my own time, just to learn the process.
I'll get a reference on InDesign that I can refer to when I'm stuck.
I'll force myself to use New Window, Story Editor, Glyphs panel, and Quick Apply three times so that I learn to fully appreciate their utility.
I'll set up, save and use at least 2 different workspaces.
I'll learn the keyboard shortcuts to open the panels I use most often, even if it means having to customize them to ones I'll remember.
I'll rebuild my Preferences, then set my application preferences and default styles and swatches, then back up that prefs file.
I'll add at least one comment to a post on InDesignSecrets.com, even just to say "thanks" or "whaaa?" so we know you're out there!
