InDesign CS4 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide

You can make any of the object settings the default for any new objects you create. You can set the object defaults for the current document or globally for all new documents.

To set current document defaults:

1.

With a document open, deselect any objects.

2.

Make whatever changes you want in the Stroke palette or other palettes. This sets the defaults for the open document.

3.

Set whatever amounts you want for the Drop Shadow, Feather, or Corner Effects dialog boxes.

To set global defaults:

  • With no document open, make what ever changes you want in the Stroke or other palettes. This sets the global defaults for all new documents.

InDesign also has its own default fill and stroke setting of a black stroke and no fill. These are separate from the defaults you set yourself. This can be easily applied to objects.

To apply the InDesign fill and stroke defaults:

  • Click the Default Fill and Stroke icon in the Toolbox .

    Click the Default Fill and Stroke icon in the Toolbox to set the fill to none and stroke to black.
