Begin typing. Text will wrap to the next line when it reaches the
column edge. If you continue typing to the end of the column, text
will flow to the next column in the section.
If a section has multiple columns, you can skip one or more columns
by clicking in the section where you want the text flow to begin.
Pasting text into a section
After you create a section, you can paste text from the Clipboard to
create text columns.
1
Use the Edit > Copy command to place text on the Clipboard.
2
Select the Text tool and click at the top of the first column in the
section. An insertion point appears in the column at the height where
you clicked.
3
Choose Edit > Paste. The text on the Clipboard appears in the
section and flows from column to column.
If the final column in a section contains overset text, you can flow the
text into another text object or section, or resize the section to contain
the overset text. See Flowing overset text into new text columns on
page 26.509.
Placing graphics in text objects
You can use the Insert Picture command to anchor graphics in a text
object. This feature lets you use custom bullets, special illustrations
for drop caps, and small logos within text.
An inserted picture behaves like a text character.
Inserted pictures move with the surrounding text.
Indent and justification settings apply to inserted pictures.
You can adjust an inserted pictures baseline and kerning.
An inserted picture rotates and skews with the surrounding
text.
