Stores the current Word Import Options for later reuse. Specify the import options, click Save Preset, type the name of the preset,
and click OK. The next time you import a Word style, you can select the preset you created from the Preset menu. Click Set As Default if you want
the selected preset to be used as the default for future imports of Word documents.
Text-file import options
If you select Show Import Options when placing a text file, you can choose from these options:
Specifies the computer language character set, such as ANSI, Unicode UTF8, or Windows CE, that was used to create the text
file. The default selection is the character set that corresponds to the default language and platform of InDesign or InCopy.
Specifies the computer language character set, such as ANSI, Unicode UTF8, Shift JIS, or Chinese Big 5, that was used to create the text file. The
default selection is the character set that corresponds to the default language and platform of InDesign or InCopy.
Specifies whether the file was created in Windows or Mac OS.
Specifies the dictionary to be used by the imported text.
Specifies how extra paragraph returns are imported. Choose Remove At End Of Every Line or Remove Between
Paragraphs.
Replaces the specified number of spaces with a tab.
Ensures that imported text includes left and right quotation marks (“ ”) and apostrophes (’) instead of straight
quotation marks (" ") and apostrophes (').
Microsoft Excel import options
You can choose from these options when importing an Excel file:
Specifies the worksheet you want to import.
Specifies whether to import any stored custom or personal views, or to ignore the views.
Specifies the range of cells, using a colon (:) to designate the range (such as A1:G15). If there are named ranges within the
worksheet, these names appear in the Cell Range menu.
Includes any cells formatted as hidden cells in the Excel spreadsheet.
Specifies how the spreadsheet information appears in the document.
InDesign tries to preserve the same formatting used in Excel, although the formatting of text within each cell may not be
preserved. If the spreadsheet is linked rather than embedded, updating the link will override any formatting applied to the table in
InDesign.
The table is imported without any formatting from the spreadsheet. When this option is selected, you can apply a
table style to the imported table. If you format text using paragraph and characters styles, the formatting is preserved even if you update
the link to the spreadsheet.
The table is imported as tab-delimited text, which you can then convert to a table in InDesign or InCopy.
