Copying type attributes with the eyedropper tool
You can use the eyedropper tool to copy the character, paragraph, fill, and stroke
attributes, and then apply those attributes to other type. By default, the eyedropper tool
copies all attributes of a type selection.
To customize the attributes you want to copy with the eyedropper tool, use the
Eyedropper Options dialog box. For more information about using the eyedropper tool
and the Eyedropper Options dialog box, see
“Copying attributes between objects” on
page 319

With the eyedropper tool
, click the text from which you want to copy attributes. (The
text can be in another open InDesign document.) The eyedropper tool reverses direction,
and appears full
, to indicate that it’s loaded with the attributes you copied. When you
position the eyedropper over text, an I-beam appears next to the loaded eyedropper

on the attributes loaded in the eyedropper. As long as the eyedropper tool is loaded, you
can select additional text to apply the loaded formatting.
3
To deselect the eyedropper tool, click another tool.
