Checking Your Design

You can check the design of your publication for errors. The Design Checker looks over your publication for problems, such as empty frames , text in overflow areas off the page, covered objects, objects in nonprinting regions , disproportional pictures, and poor spacing between sentences. Once the Design Checker identifies problems, it suggests solutions, which you can accept or ignore. You determine Design Checker's settings in its Options box.
