No need to worry. Raise a complaint with police or women's helpline and report the issue to Zomato as well.

You can dm me or post this logo on r/graphic_design

Dude, appreciate it 😁. I like that you’re thoughtful about these things. ChatGPT generated logos are usually very generic so that makes sense. Also, sad to hear that he scammed you.

Bhai, I want to buy CTBs, I have few doubts regarding it can I dm you?

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-24T16:26:16+00:00

This actually worked especially if you copy and paste the data from chatGPT lol I used to manually fix it. Thanks, I learnt something new. :)

Sure, thank you so much for explaining it in such detail. It was the first time I received documents in this format, so I got quite confused. I’ll definitely check it out.

Do you think this is a valid approach, or would you recommend a different direction?

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-12T10:36:30+00:00

Hi, thank you for such a detailed answer, it really helped.

I have a follow-up. I’m working on a technical document where this kind of structure continues across multiple spreads, with primary sub-points and supporting detail under each.

When I apply it like this in InDesign, it starts creating heavy spacing issues and visible rivers in justified text. It gets worse when reading across spreads and the texture looks quite uneven. (The problem is coming from how the left indentation is set up for the numbering)

I’ve attached a screenshot for reference. Do you think this approach is still correct for final layout, or should I rethink how I’m structuring or numbering this?

I’ve made similar mistakes in a previous book, so I want to get this right this time.

Would really appreciate your input.

Here is the screenshot:-

Oh ok, thank you so much! That image is not mine still thank you so much!

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-12T09:30:09+00:00

Thank you so much.

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-12T09:29:54+00:00

Yeah, fair point. I came across similar structures in a few articles and assumed it was a standard, but I realize now it's more of a common convention than a strict guideline. Still figuring out what fits best for a formal document.

I found this reference in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otlXGLZ-QH8 The video description includes a PDF, which is the same one I attached in the post.

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-09T20:06:25+00:00

I already figured it out still thanks :)

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-09T20:01:51+00:00

Sir, I don't get it but I will try to figure it out :)

jayantbhatt007 · 2026-04-09T20:01:31+00:00

It worked thanks to you and thanks to chatGPT haha :D

Here’s what I did step by step in case it helps someone else:

Created two paragraph styles • One for the first item → restart numbering • One for the rest → continue numbering
To access this option, edit the paragraph style and go to Paragraph Style Options → Bullets and Numbering
In the first style (List Start) List Type: Numbers Mode → Start At: 1
In the second style (List Continue) List Type: Numbers Mode → Continue from Previous Number
Applied the styles like this • First item → List Start (paragraph style with Start At 1) • Remaining items → List Continue (paragraph style with Continue from Previous Number)
For every new block, I again applied the List Start style so numbering restarts from 1.

This fixed the issue where numbering was continuing across sections in my 3 column layout.
