Inserting Text Files

To insert text files:

  1. Choose File > Insert > Text File...

    The file browser appears. The Files area of this window shows all files and directories that are contained in the directory whose full pathname is shown in the Selection field.

  2. Locate the file that you want to open.

  3. Insert the file using one of these methods:

  4. Use the dialog box that appears to specify how you want to treat line breaks in the text file.

    You can preserve the line breaks, in which case each line will appear as a separate paragraph, or you can merge the lines and form paragraphs. You can also choose to convert the text file into a table. See Converting Text Files Into Tables.

  5. Click the Insert button and the text appears in your document.
