## What I Want & The Problem I want to create a large circle with smaller circles following the inner-line of the larger circle at differing positions on the inner-line; yet every time I rotate the smaller circles within the larger one they begin to either clip the larger circle (going over its edge) or become pulled away from the edge (going off of the path) at certain points. (Both circles are perfect circles) ## Approach I've setup ruler guides at the center points on the horizontal and vertical nodes of the larger circle and I snap the center-edge of the smaller circle to the larger circle's right-side node (without clipping) after that I take the smaller circle's "Transform Origin" and place it in the center of the larger circle; then I duplicate the smaller circle and begin rotating them individually around the larger circle by selecting a single small circle and the larger circle and then choosing the rotate handle. Whilst doing this multiple times around the larger circle there begins to be points around the circle where the smaller circles are no longer attached to the edge of the larger circle. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you, EC71PZ

So I have a layout that has numerous text boxes, that was originally designed for 8.5x11". I want to scale the design down to 5.5x8.5". How do I scale the text boxes so that when I scale them down, the font is resized automatically? Currently this is what is happening: I grab a handle of a text box that contains 12 point font, and scale it down. The text box scales down, but the font within does not. The font stays the same size (12 point), and eventually the words in the textbox simply overflow the textbox, because they no longer fit within the smaller dimensions of the scaled textbox. What I am trying to achieve: I grabe a handle of a text box that contains 12 point font, and scale it down. The text box scales down, as does the font within. The font goes from 12 point to whatever is need to keep its layout within the textbox (let's say 9 points). The words in the textbox don't overflow, as they maintain their original layout within the textbox. Ideally I want to achieve this without converting to curves, as I want to retain the ability to edit the text.
