1 Select the objects to align or distribute.
2 Choose Window > Object & Layout > Align to display the Align panel.
To show or hide additional panel options, choose Show Options or Hide Options from the panel menu.
3 From the menu at the bottom of the panel, specify whether you want to align or distribute objects based on the
selection, margins, page, or spread.
4 Do one of the following:
• To align objects, click the button for the type of alignment you want.
• To distribute objects, click the button for the type of distribution you want. For example, if you click the
Distribute Left Edges button when Align To Selection is turned on, InDesign makes sure that there is an equal
amount of space from left edge to left edge of each selected object.
A Creates even spacing between the centers of each object B Keeps the overall width the same as before the transformation
• To set the space between objects, either center to center or edge to matching edge, select Use Spacing under
Distribute Objects, and then type the amount of space you want to apply. Click a button to distribute the selected
objects along their horizontal or vertical axes.
