Obscure InDesign Feature of the Week: Show Full Menus

News and special offers from our sponsors:
>> Recosoft is the company behind the genius PDF2ID conversion tool. It adds an Open PDF command to InDesign's File menu, how cool is that! They also sell ID2Office, a converter that can make editable Office documents out of your InDesign files, which is going to make David's wife quite happy. Check them out at Recosoft.com
>> Andromeda Software lets you untether your desktop with their new, still-in-beta  CollabSystem for InDesign users and the clients who love them. It's a collaborative environment; a central, cloud-based community where you can share your works in progress from within InDesign. Upload your work to the cloud from within InDesign and share access with up to 30 users via a simple URL or free iTunes app for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. Download the free (but limited enrollment) beta today!
>> Rorohiko makes awesome plug-ins for creative professionals who use InDesign. Check out the latest beta of their innovative FramedWeb plug-in which allows you to import web pages and convert them into editable InDesign layouts. The beta is free, but they want to offer a deal to InDesignSecrets listeners. So if you purchase a completely unrelated — but just as awesome — plug-in of theirs called Frame Reporter(adds useful info to any text or image frame automatically), and use the coupon code INDESIGNSECRETS156, you’ll get 25% off the cost.

Quizzler Winner! In episode #156, we asked you to tell us what was the very first InDesignSecrets blog post in 2007. (This was a sneaky way to promote our Archives page, a fast way to access the 1200+ blog posts here.) The winner, chosen via a random drawing of the multiple correct submissions, was faithful listener Salah Al-Din Talhami of Virtual Designing Universe with the answer: On January 1, 2007, at 6:14 p.m., David posted the (still relevant) article "Assigning Default Text Formatting." Great work, Salah! You will receive a copy of In-Tools' wonderful Style Utilities for InDesign.
