\uD83D\uDCD8 Instructions

InDesign does not automatically know what the reading order should be. If you have a document with a lot of layers, floating objects, and other elements, chances are that InDesign will export things in the wrong order. The authors need to specify the correct reading order.

Section 4.1: Specifying the Reading Order

  1. In the Main Menu, click the Windows tab. In the dropdown menu, click Articles.

  2. The Articles Panel will open, but appear blank.

    The articles tab open without content inside.
  3. Click on the Selection Tool and drag each object into the Articles Panel one at a time. (Images, Text, etc). Be sure to drag in the title first, then the main text, then any pictures you included. When you drag in the content, give them relevant names to what their content is.
