Using ligatures
InDesign can automatically insert
ligatures
, which are typographic replacement
characters for certain letter pairs, such as “fi” and “fl,” when they are available in a given
font. The characters that InDesign uses when the Ligature option is selected appear and
print as ligatures, but are fully editable, and do not cause the spell checker to flag a
word erroneously.
Individual characters (top) and ligature combinations (bottom)
With OpenType fonts, when you choose Ligatures in the Character palette menu, InDesign
produces any standard ligature defined in the font, as determined by the font designer.
However, some fonts include more ornate, optional ligatures, which can be produced
when you choose the Discretionary Ligatures command; see
“About OpenType fonts” on
page 115
.
To apply ligatures to selected letter pairs:
Select Ligatures in the Character palette menu.
Changing the color and gradient of type
You can apply colors and gradients to the stroke and fill of characters, and continue to edit
the text.
When applying color to the text rather than the container, make sure that you select the
Formatting Affects Text icon
in the toolbox or in the Swatches palette. (See
“Applying
color” on page 302
.)
To create reverse type, you can change the text fill color to white or [Paper] and the
frame’s fill color to a dark color. You can also create reverse type by using a paragraph
rule behind text. (See
“Adding rules above or below paragraphs” on page 130
.)
Assigning a language
InDesign uses Proximity language dictionaries for both spelling and hyphenation. These
dictionaries let you specify a different language for as little as a single character of text.
Each dictionary contains hundreds of thousands of words with standard syllable breaks.
