Scaling & rotating from the keyboard
Using math in the X, Y, W, H, and % (Scale) fields to transform

And many more!

Obscure InDesign Feature of the Week: Pattern Length



News and special offers from our sponsors:

>> In-Tools has a very cool plug-in called Column Flow which among other things let you create straddle heads on the fly!. As always, InDesignSecrets fans can get $20 off the price for either one of In-Tool's InDesign plug-in bundles, InBook or InSefer, (both of which include Column Flow) if you purchase from this special page on their site. The full list of plug-ins bundled in the packages is here.
>> Rorohiko ("Slash the time it takes!") has a number of cool plug-ins for InDesign users that slash the amount of time it takes to get something done! In this episode we take a close look at their new Mac/Windows utility called Soxy ($19 US) that helps you open files (InDesign, and others) in the correct version of the program when you have more than one version installed. Special for InDesignSecrets listeners: Use the coupon code INDESIGNSECRETS113 (that's "one one three" at the end) in the Rorohiko.com store to get 25% off the Soxy utility.
