Book design by Susan Marsh The Challenge Compose type for large-scale fine art book comprising over 1,000 pages, according to specifications set forth by book designer. A high volume of manuscript text needed to be composed on a tight deadline and delivered to designer for layout. The Solution Due to the large amount of text being composed, this project required advanced knowledge of InDesign's timesaving automation features and plugins such as Power Headers, Multi-Find Change, GREP, and javascripts. Text was processed in batches of several hundred pages at a time. Automated find/change routines were used to ensure consistency, and all type was carefully checked for correct styling and line breaks. FINE ART BOOKS
