Okay. So this will be our tutorial 
about using text wraps,

hyphenation, spell check, and transform.

So when we're thinking of image and text,

we have some
really cool options in InDesign

to allow them to work together, 
that saves you some time.

We're thinking always 
of being the most efficient.

Once you have your techniques, you want
to think about expediting your process

so that you can make work um,
as efficiently as possible.

So let's start with thinking
about text wrap.

So a text wrap is when you're thinking 
about the interaction of text,

so here is my text frame,

and image, so here's my image frame.

Of course, we know that our image frame,

here I can see the image 
is actually quite large

with this yellow orange 
kind of bounding box.

That tells me 
that the image is really big,

but of course, it's inside a frame

and if I want to use 
the content grabber to edit, I can.

So that is a big image, 
but it's kind of isolated to this page

and I have my text. So the way
to think about using text

and um, text wrap, is a consideration 
of how you want the text to flow

around any particular image.

Now in this rectangular case,

it's pretty easy to just kind of 
line up my text frame

to be in a position where it feels
like it's flowing around the image.

But these two objects 
aren't really connected together.

So another more interesting way

is to think about using text wrap,

and the way I'm going to show it to you

is by changing the shape of this.

You really get an idea of how it works.

So the first thing I'm going to do is

I'm just going to make this 
a non rectangular image,

so I'm going to change the frame.

And I'm going to do that, make sure 
you're not clicked on anything.

I'm going to grab my direct selection tool

because I just want to edit 
this one little corner.

So I've clicked on that corner 
and I'm going to shift it over.

So I'm just going to kind of create 
you know, some sort of a diagonal.

This will just reveal 
the text wrap to you,

more so than if it was rectangular.

It's also kind of a nice design.

So now, the trick 
with thinking about text wrap

is it's something that you actually apply

to the image, not to the text.

That's the one little conceptual trick
here uh, that's kind of hard to remember.

So, here's my text.

Let's imagine I'm going to kind of 
let it wrap around the edge of the image,

both with my title and with 
the actual kind of information here.

So I'm going to click on the actual image

using my regular selection tool,

because remember, 
that grabs the bounding box.

And then, you'll see an opportunity

inside your Properties panel down here 
called Text Wrap.

Now again, really important.
If you're using your other selection tool,

oh, actually using the other one
brings it up too,

so if for some reason 
you didn't see it though,

I just always kind of default 
to my regular selection tool.

Click on the image.

And then you'll see your text wrap.

So, first opportunity here 
is no text wrap,

so that's what it's currently set at.

You can see it's a little bit darker.

Here, if we wrap around the bounding box,

remembering that I changed 
the bounding box, look what happens.

It has shifted my text to kind of 
match this angle right here.

Oops, I just zoomed in 
on the actual image

instead of the frame, there you go.

So now it's done that,

if I want to use some offsets,

which in this case is just one offset 
to kind of space it out,

I could always increase some spacing.

Oops, Command Z, 
let me get back here a little bit.

Use some spacing on this image 
to kind of bump this around.

So I'm going to click off 
and just zoom myself out a little bit.

So again, I'm on the image.

If I apply a text wrap, I'm going 
to go back in time here.

There's my text wrap, which is 
a wrap around bounding box.

If I need to increase the spacing
then I'm going to use an offset.

So this is an offset number.

It'll usually limit you to just doing

whatever one works for 
that particular bounding or text wrap,

which in this case is a top offset,

but it's sort of shifting things 
left to right.

Now notice what's happening with also 
the title of this kind of article.

It is getting overset.

I'm kind of missing out on some 
of my text with this little red thing.

So of course, I can increase the size 
of this text frame so that it also works,

but it's shifting this
according to the text wrap.

So that is a text wrap 
with a bounding box.

Very interesting, clever way-- 
the, of working with text and image.

The other thing you can do, 
you don't necessarily have

to have it working with an image.

You can use text wrap with any object.

So here's another object.

This is something I drew really quickly

and I actually just used the pen tool.

Here we go, you're familiar
with the pen tool.

You can use the pen tool in InDesign.

You can also use it in Illustrator.

If you're drawing something more complex,

then of course you can place 
your object inside InDesign.

So here, I have some text 
and this kind of custom shape.

Let's imagine 
it's a poorly drawn guitar of some sort.

Uh, let's think about 
the kind of text wrap

we could do with these two objects.

So I am again, make sure 
you don't have anything selected.

Get your black arrow selection tool,

go to the object itself

to determine what kind 
of text wrap you want.

Here's the one we did before
around the bounding box.

Remember, this is actually in
a bounding box that's square.

So that's not going to help us at all.

What I want us to think about instead

is wrapping around
the object that I've drawn.

So if I use wrap around object, 
look what's happened.

Now I have this lovely little flow

around the side of the object.

Of course, if I move my text frame around, 
it's going to keep flowing

and the positioning of the text 
will flow around that object.

If I change the size of the object, 
of course,

it's just going to keep flowing.

Now, other opportunity is maybe

we don't want to be 
on the outside of this object.

Perhaps we want to be
on the inside of the object.

In that case, you have 
an invert button here.

So if I invert and also
make sure I grab my text,

so I'm going to use my black arrow.

I'm going to move the text 
so that it's actually

in the space of the object.

And perhaps I need to make 
my text frame a little bit wider.

Bring it in a little bit here.

And I'm, that top line looks like it's, 
there we go.

Bring that down a little bit.

So now I have done a text wrap

around an object and inverted it

so that it's actually inside the object.

So that is wrap around object shape, 
invert.

You also have um, jump object, 
jump to next column.

Those are a little bit more if you're uh, 
doing column based design work.

I think the most useful for you currently

is the wrap around bounding box
or wrap around object shape,

thinking about how to invert it.

Again, if you don't want to do it,

then you can always just 
go back to this no text wrap

and now you're back to the basics 
where they aren't interacting together.

So those are your text wrap options, 
very fun.

Uh, the other thing I want to show you

is to just pay attention
to what is hyphenated.

If you're writing out a lot of text

and you're breaking on a line,

it's going to create a hyphenation,

so here's a hyphen, here's a hyphen,

here's a hyphen, here's a hyphen.

Sometimes that's a really 
kind of annoying thing

when you're a viewer or a reader.

Just seeing a bunch of hyphens 
along the edge is kind of a bad design.

It can get kind of um, 
irritating on your eyes.

So if you want to turn that off,

I recommend turning that off 
and it's just a really simple setting.

If you scroll down
in your Properties panel,

you have to be on a text frame

because otherwise it won't have
all the opportunities, but scroll down.

Under this paragraph right here 
where you have paragraph options,

you know, you've got center, 
justification, etc.,

we have a hyphenate button.

So I like to turn that off 
and it's just going to move the words down

rather than hyphenate, hyphenate, 
hyphenate all the time.

That's hyphenation.

The other thing I want you 
to pay attention to is your spelling.

There is nothing worse 
than looking at a beautiful design

that has a bunch of spelling errors,

because they become these little kind of

just nuisances to your brain.

So, you can, of course, 
check your spelling in a word document.

Particularly if you have a lot of text,

use that kind of word document program,

whatever it might be, 
to check your spelling.

Or if you're just going 
to type into InDesign,

we do have a spellcheck feature.

So grab your text frame.

Actually you don't even need 
to grab a text frame.

You can go right into it. 
It's under the Edit menu.

Spelling, Check Spelling.

This will go through like 
a normal kind of text editor

kind of word processing document

and check all of your spelling.

Suggested, you can commit to it, 
you can skip it, ignore it, etc.

When you're finished, you can hit Done.

So please check your spelling 
on your work.

Um, that again is just 
Edit, Spelling, Check Spelling.

You can also do Dynamic Spelling. 
That'll watch it as you type.

That's an opportunity for you if you
like that kind of um, spelling work.

Okay, so we've done text wraps, 
hyphenation, spelling.

The only other thing I'm going to show you

that people often like to do,

because we've done it in other programs, 
is to flip things.

So if you've been experimenting

with flipping images 
horizontally or vertically

in Illustrator or Photoshop,

we can do the same here.

So let's do it on this 
actual image of the waves.

So the way to do this 
is through transforming.

Once you have your file, of course,

and you've grabbed it 
with your selection tool,

top of your properties panel 
is your Transform, up here.

You always want to choose 
the reference point.

So if you're just transforming 
vertically or horizontally as a flip,

like you were thinking of it in a mirror,

I use the center point,

but you could also flip from edges.

So you would just simply click on an edge

and that's the reference point 
from which it would flip.

But I keep it on the center for ease.

Now of course, you could 
think about your X and Y

and your rotation and etc., your angle,

but the easiest thing, I think, is either

use your rotations 
if that's what you're after

or here's the flipping options. 
Flip horizontal, flip vertical.

Kind of gives you a little preview 
of how it works in the icons,

so here's a flip horizontal, 
here you see what's happened.

Of course, I may have 
to rethink my text there.

Here's flip vertical.

So those, that's how those work,

so a very easy opportunity to work 
with your images in InDesign.
