Your callout philosophy

Nancy, it there is even a remote possibility that your docs will be
localized, definitily put the callouts in text frames.  That way, they
become part of the body text flow and will show up on the translators
workbench screen.  Otherwise, they have to be done individually and it will
cost you a lot more and take more time.

Regards,
Diane

Subject: Your callout philosophy



I am working on a document that currently has both paragraph tags for
callouts, and character tags.

I can create callouts either by:

--Creating a text box in the figure, entering text, and formatting it
with a callout paragraph tag. I prefer this. Makes it easy to widen or
narrow the callout text.

--Using the Text tool to enter text, and formatting it with a character
tag. If the text needs to be expanded or edited, all repositioning of
text must be done manually. A pain.

However, I could be missing something. How do you create your callouts,
and why?

Thanks!

--Nancy
