Episode 31: White Space
October 31st, 2006
No, this isn’t the white space you learned about in design school. Rather, this episode takes an in-depth look at all eight (yes, eight!) different types of white spaces available within InDesign. What are they, where are they, and how do you use them? Find out in this latest episode. Also…get the inside scoop about the very first InDesigner contest to celebrate the upcoming one-year anniversary of the show.

hi!
just watched three or four podcasts from september through october 2007 (i am only that “far”) - i greatly appreciate your detailed explanation and information bout some unkown features or great and simple yet effective workarounds one would never encounter, because one’s own way to work wouldn’t change easily without external inputs like yours.
i from now on shall call you the “missing manual” for indesign…
have a nice day and keep up you great information on this great application!

Hello Michael!
I’m a huge fan, and have watched every podcast at least once. I refer my coworkers to you all the time.
But, I’ve run into an issue with spacing, and just watched this episode in hopes of an answer.
Is there a way to set a Paragraph Style or Character Style to use en spaces in between words instead of spacebar spaces?
I’m trying to have section markers fill a text box, but the space between the words must use an en space. I can do it manually of course, but would love the assurance of an automatic solution. I searched the web, but to no avail. Any ideas? I’m on CS2.
Thanks much, and looking forward to the next show.
