Convert footnotes to endnotes MS Word has dynamic footnotes and dynamic endnotes; InDesign has just dynamic footnotes. When you place a Word document with endnotes in InDesign, Word's dynamic endnotes are therefore converted to static endnotes. This means that if you add or remove notes, you have to change note numbers and references manually. The script described here converts the static endnotes to dynamic ones so that footnote references can be updated automatically after adding and deleting footnotes.

Gradients Linear gradients Linear gradients are gradients in their most basic form—a gradual blend between colors, following a straight line.

This way I won’t pay too much attention to some details that should be taken care of later, but stay focused on general layout and functionality. Below you will find more than 20 resources that you can use in sketching phase of application development.
