Preserving text when moving from InDesign to GoLive

Adobe offers these tips for ensuring that the text from your InDesign document comes across as you intend when you move to its GoLive Web publishing tool.

Before you package your InDesign document for use in GoLive, there are a couple of things you can do to ensure that text comes across as you want it to in GoLive.

 

The first is to make sure text in InDesign is formatted using character and paragraph styles. When you move from InDesign to GoLive, these styles are converted automatically to cascading style sheets (CSS), which you can edit in GoLive’s CSS Editor as needed. Text that has been manually formatted (without styles) appears as unformatted text in GoLive.

 

The second is to consider how text frames are threaded in InDesign. When you package the document for GoLive, InDesign will save threaded text frames in a single story, so make sure that text in your InDesign document is broken into chunks that you can reuse as components in GoLive.
