issue working with copy/pasted text

[j.king]

I'm working on a card that has quite a bit of medical copy. The client sent the copy to me in an email in hopes that I could just copy/paste it in order to avoid having to retype. When copy/pasted into AD, it shows up as copy in a Text Frame. The issue is, I cannot grab all text frames and downsize everything by grabbing a corner node and holding shift. The text frames change size but all pasted copy stays the same point sizes. Major PITA, not good. Converting to curves would remove ability to edit. AI allowed this function but I've not found a way to do it in AD. Is there something simple I'm missing here? A setting? Or a magic word?

Did you try dragging on the 'extra' handle below & to the right of the other 8 selection box handles?

Bingo!! No I didn't and that solved it. Thank you, sir! Never even noticed that extra handle.
