Adjusting column guides
Column height and width can be adjusted by dragging the entire sec-
tion into position. Also, the columns can be individually adjusted.
You can reposition column guides with the Section tool by moving
them left, right, up, or down. To adjust the column guides, select the
Section tool in the Text tool palette. Then either drag the entire sec-
tion to reposition it or just the columns to adjust the height or width.
Placing text in a section
After you have created a section, you can select the Text tool and
click in the section to begin typing, or you can place existing text in
the section. This lesson demonstrates how to place text in the section
you created earlier (see Creating columns of text, page 6.52).
To place text in a section
1
Select the Text tool and click inside the first column in the sec-
tion under the headline.

Now you are going to import text from another document into
the columns. Choose File > Place.
