Ever wondered how to get tabs to work (for you) in InDesign?
By popular demand Ive added a series of videos explaining the key areas of working with tabs, including: Working with the tabs panel, setting tabs, editing tabs, working with right indents and leaders, aligning to decimals and Working with first line indents.
Hope this helps!

Thank you for your video’s. You have saved me a lot of time.
If you have other “How To” videos available please let me know.

The videos cover information I already knew. The question I have is why the Tab ruler (when the document is set for picas) doesn’t put the main tic marks at each pica. It did in MAC. But, I’ve switched to PC and find the tic marks awkward when I want to work in picas.
Thanks.
