Nested style character style options

To determine how a nested character style ends, select any of the following:

If you don’t want the character to be included in the nested style formatted, choose Up To instead of Through when you define the nested
style.

Periods, question marks, and exclamation points indicate the end of a sentence. If a quotation mark follows the punctuation, it is

included as part of the sentence.

Any space or white space character indicates the end of a word.

Any character other than zero-width markers (for anchors, index markers, XML tags and so on) is included.

If you select Characters, you can also type a character, such as a colon or a period, to end the nested style. If you type multiple characters,

any of those characters will end the style. For example, if your run-in headings end with a hyphen, colon, or question mark, you can type -:? to end
the nested style where any of these characters appears.

Any character that does not include punctuation, white space, digits, and symbols.

The Arabic numerals 0–9 are included.

Extends the nested style up to or through the appearance of the End Nested Style character you insert. To insert

this character, choose Type > Insert Special Character > Other > End Nested Style Here.

Extends the nested style up to or through the tab character (not the tab setting).

Extends the nested style up to or through the forced line break. (Choose Type > Insert Break Character > Forced Line Break.)

Extends the nested style up to or through the Indent To Here character. (Choose Type > Insert Special Character >

Other > Indent To Here.)

Extends the nested style up to or through the space character. (Choose Type > Insert White

Space > [space character].)

Extends the nested style up to or through an inline graphic marker, which appears where an inline graphic is inserted.

Extends the nested style up to or through the page number or section name marker.

End a nested style

In most cases, a nested style ends where the condition of the defined style is met, such as after three words or where a period appears. However,
you can also end a nested style before the condition is met using the End Nested Style Here character.

1. Place the insertion point where you want the nested style to end.

2. Choose Type > Insert Special Character > Other > End Nested Style Here.
