ID Tip #247: Importing Copy Files

So, sometimes when your copywriter arranges his copy in the Word file with lots of formatting, and it can impede on your ability to select the type when imported into InDesign.

Make things easier by unchecking "Retain Format" in the Import window. This will cause InDesign to strip the file of all formatting (including bold, italic, and underlining). I'm not sure if it strips the file of it's table-setup, but we'll talk about that later.
