Story Editor preferences

Use Story Editor Display preferences to change the appearance of the Story Editor. Although the Story Editor
suppresses all but the most basic text styling attributes, some objects and attributes are represented, including the
following:

Text Display Options

Choose a display font, size, line spacing, text color, and background. You can also specify a

different theme, such as selecting Classic System to view yellow text on a black background. These settings affect the
display of text in the story editor window, not how they appear in layout view.

Enable Anti-Aliasing

Smooth the jagged edges of type, and choose the Type of anti-aliasing: LCD Optimized, Soft,

or the Default setting, which uses shades of gray to smooth text. LCD Optimized uses colors, rather than shades of
gray, to smooth text, and works best on light-colored backgrounds with black text. Soft uses shades of gray, but
produces a lighter, fuzzier appearance than Default.

Cursor Options

Change the appearance of the text cursor. For example, select Blink if you want the cursor to blink.

Text from inline frames does not appear in the parent story editor window, but it can appear in its own story editor
window. Table text does not appear in story editor windows.
