Highlight lines that are too loose or tight
Because composing a line of type involves factors in addition to word spacing and letterspacing (hyphenation
preferences, for example), InDesign cannot always honor your settings for word spacing and letterspacing. However,
compositional problems in lines of text can be highlighted in yellow; the darkest of three shades indicates the most
serious problems.
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Composition (Windows) or InDesign > Preferences > Composition (Mac OS).

Apply baseline shift
Use Baseline Shift to move a selected character up or down relative to the baseline of the surrounding text. This option
is especially useful when you’re hand-setting fractions or adjusting the position of inline graphics.
1 Select text.
2 In the Character panel or Control panel, type a numeric value for Baseline Shift . Positive values move the
character’s baseline above the baseline of the rest of the line; negative values move it below the baseline.
