General aspects of ISM studies using absorption line studies are given and available data are reviewed. Topics are: galactic foreground gas, individual fields in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) and MC coronae. Overall investigations are discussed. It is demonstrated that the metals in the gas of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) are a factor of 3 and 10, respectively, in abundance below solar levels. The depletion pattern in the LMC is similar to that of the Milky Way.
