Using Space Before/Space After values allows for precision spacing that can be applied consistently through paragraph styles. Paragraph returns often result in too much space between paragraphs, and they can end up leaving space at the bottom or top of a column as text flows.
29
What are glyphs? How do you insert them into text?
A glyph is a representation of a character within a single font. For example, a font may provide two different options for a dollar sign, such as the two dollar sign symbols ($ and $) available in Warnock Pro. The Glyphs panel (Type menu) provides access to all the glyphs in a font.
30
A drop cap affects a character, so why is it specified as a paragraph format?
Drop caps are paragraph formats because they are not specific to selected text. If a drop cap is applied to a paragraph, it remains even if the text is edited. In addition, drop cap formatting can be applied consistently through paragraph styles.
31
What is a tab leader?
A tab leader is a character (or multiple characters) that fills the space between text and a tab marker.

The controls are available in the Control panel and the Character panel.
33

Instead, you can simply modify the object style to automatically update all the objects to which it is applied.

What are the two ways to globally update a style you’ve applied in an InDesign document?
InDesign offers two ways to update styles. The first is to edit the style itself by making changes to the formatting options. The other is to use local formatting to change an instance and then redefine the style based on that instance.
59
How would you import styles from another InDesign document?
From any Styles panel (Paragraph, Object, Cell, etc.), choose Load Styles from the panel menu. Locate the InDesign document from which you want to load the styles. You can then select the styles to load.

Tables give you much more flexibility and are far easier to format. In a table, text can wrap within a cell, so you don’t have to add extra lines to accommodate cells that contain a lot of text. Also, you can assign styles to selected cells, rows, and columns—including character styles and even paragraph styles—because each cell functions like a separate text frame.
70
What tool is used most frequently when you work with tables?
The Type tool must be selected to work with a table. You can use other tools to work with the graphics within table cells, but to work with the table itself, such as selecting rows or columns, inserting text or graphics, adjusting table dimensions, and so forth, you use the Type tool.
71
How can you ensure that a table’s title and column headings repeat if a table continues on multiple pages?
Select the heading rows you want to repeat and then choose Table > Convert Rows > To Header. You can also repeat footer rows using Table > Convert Rows > To Footer.
72
How can you put graphics in table cells?
You can select a cell with the Type tool, select Table > Convert Cell To Graphic Cell, and then use File > Place to import a graphic. If you simply select a cell and import a graphic through File > Place, the cell is converted automatically to a graphic cell. Another way to add a graphic to a cell is to anchor one in the text inside the cell.
