OS Catalina 10.15.7 version 16.4 Hi all, I work for a non-profit who regularly assigns me to work for long publications (200+ pages). They would prepare Word documents containing footnotes, texts, figures, etc. that have been finalized internally and then send to me to layout in InDesign. In the past I would use InDesign Place function to generate content automatically, and the biggest pain point is always that the Word Document they have prepared for me don't follow consistent styles at all. For example, they might use the same styles for multiple elements (like graph titles, captions, and heading), and they might just manually use bold function in Word to indicate a heading, or the way they inconsistently style the footnote references make some of the footnotes disappear altogether when placed into InDesign. What is your recommendations? Is there any AI / scripts that can smartly sort out this issue, do you recommend just manually do formatting within the Word doc first before placing the file into ID, or any other advices? Thank you.
