How to Remove Blue Highlighted Text in InDesign
So why is your InDesign text randomly highlighted in blue?What is the blue background color behind text in InDesign? Is your Adobe InDesign suddenly showing teal highlight behind your text?It's because of a helpful tool, that I have never heard of before, called a style override highlighter - meaning it shows you what text you've modified in your document that is different from the InDesign Basic Paragraph. It's actually super helpful if you're trying to clean up a document's layout, but never having heard of it before, all I wanted to do was get rid of the teal highlighting [...]

Adding a Privacy Policy to My Website
Privacy Policies are important, even though they are generally pretty boring. They legally protect your derriere, but also provide a sense of ease to those who actually read them. They know exactly what they are getting with your site. Same goes with "Terms of Service" - our next blog post. We're updating ours so we thought it was a good time to post some good resources if you are trying to do the same. The BBB, Better Business Bureau (an old client of ours! - East Coast chapter), actually put out a template we use ourselves. Templates are great because [...]

For example, if I were to offer you a custom website for $750 with a 2-day turnaround, you could probably expect a [...]

You establish the rules for how your brand should appear, what fonts to use, what styles to use, what logos, colors, and layout types to use. Does your company utilize white space? What about curvy fonts [...]
