How to Smart Highlight in InDesign
InDesign is a desktop publishing program created by Adobe Systems as part of its Creative Suite (CS). Using InDesign, graphic designers create layouts for media such as magazines, posters, newspapers and books. The resulting files conform to the printing industry's standards, or can be saved as PDFs to be shared digitally. Smart Styles is an InDesign plug-in tool that automates and formats repetitive tasks, so users can work more efficiently. The highlight feature within Smart Styles is used primarily to arrange data within InDesign tables. Once you've installed this plug-in, enabling the highlight function is an easy process.
