imacken Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I have a A4 document including some text boxes, that I want to reduce to A5 and put 2 of them on an A4 sheet. Wen I used Illustrator, I would just select-all, copy and past into the new document. Then I would just resize the selected objects with one of the handles, duplicate it and I would have what I wanted. When I try this in AD, the text boxes all retain the original size of text and it makes this exercise almost impossible! Presumably, there must be a way of doing this. Can anyone help? Quickly? Haha! EDIT: It's OK, I've just noticed the grab at the bottom right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misc33 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I also had this problem recently, and was delighted to find the bottom right grab point! An elegant solution, most intuitive - once you finally realise it's there. Quote MacBook Pro 15" 32GB RAM, iPad Pro 12.9" + Magic Keyboard, Apple Pencil.
