Various menu options are typically available in each of the Creative Cloud applications. However, within each of these menus, several other options are available. Some of them open dialog boxes — this type of option is typically indicated by an ellipsis that follows the menu option, as shown in Figure 4-4.

FIGURE 4-4: Choosing a menu option with an ellipsis opens a submenu.

The following menu options are found in several Creative Cloud applications, and these commands either perform similar (or the same) functions or they open similar dialog boxes:

 New: Creates a brand-new document in the native file format. For example, in InDesign, a new INDD (the extension for InDesign documents) file is created by choosing File ⇒ New ⇒ Document. You can sometimes choose the type of new file you want to create.

 Open: Opens a dialog box where you can choose a (supported) file to open on your hard drive or a disc.

 Close: Closes the current document. If it has unsaved changes, you’re prompted to save those changes first.

 Save: Saves the changes you’ve made to the current document.

 Save As: Saves a new copy of the current document using a different name.

 Import: Imports a file, such as an image or sound file, into the current document.

 Export: Exports the current data to a specified file format. You can sometimes select several kinds of file formats to save the current data in.

 Copy: Copies the selected data to the computer’s Clipboard.

 Paste: Pastes the data from the Clipboard into the current document.

 Undo: Undoes the most recent task you performed in the application. For example, if you just created a rectangle, the rectangle is removed from the document.

 Redo: Repeats the steps you applied the Undo command to. For example, if you removed that rectangle you created, the Redo command adds it back to the document.

 Zoom In: Magnifies the document so that you can view and edit its contents closely.

 Zoom Out: Scales the view smaller so that you can see more of the document at a time.

 Help: Opens the Help documentation for the current application.
