    Default Customizing the Type Tool

    I have been looking for quite some time as of how to cusomize the type
    tool. Specifically the "caps" is always on and so any time I enter
    placeholder text or paste copied text from a clients web-site, I have
    to go back and turn the button off. Is there a way to customize the
    caps button so that it is on only when I want it on?

    Thanks,
    Bruno

    Hi Bruno,

    Have you tried opening inDesign, then turning off the caps, with no
    documents open? Then every new document you make should have caps off.

    Thanks Mhari,

    Problem solved. I can't believe I never figured that out. It's always
    the easiest solution.
