Import and Paste a Text Glossary

You worked with object glossary entries earlier in this tutorial, when you imported the object glossary from the Bulletin Templates document and pasted the masthead on the front page and the logo on the left master page. Now you'll learn how to work with a text glossary you import from the same file. This is very similar to working with an object glossary. The difference is that text glossary entries store formatted text instead of objects.

  1. Select the l-beam pointer in the Tools palette.

  2. Click in the text block to select an insertion point.

  3. Choose Glossaries in the Document menu and then choose Text. The Glossary dialog box appears. Sahafi's built-in text glossary entries appear in the list.

  4. Click Import and then double click Bulletin Templates in the Tutorial Folder. The single text glossary entry in the Bulletin Templates document, Address & Hours, is imported into the Summer Bulletin. Its name is added to the list of entries in the dialog box and is selected in the list.

  5. Click Paste and then click Done. The text in the Address & Hours glossary entry is pasted into the text block. It retains the formats that were specified when it was created -10/14 New Century Schoolbook Bold, white, with an 11-pica, 2-point paragraph and left indent. The indents cause the address and hours to align with the left edge of the same grid rectangle as the descriptions of events in the text block above them.
