text flow for endnotes

[mogsie]

I have endnotes running out at the end of a document. I add more pages, but it won't let me flow the text to the next page.

Hi Mogsie, what do you mean by it won't let you flow the text to the next page? If you Shift+click the Text Flow Out control on the right side of the endnote frame toward the bottom, will Publisher not create additional pages of frames as required?

No. When it's endnotes, the wee red triangle never appears. Each endnote seems to be in a text box of its own, and the usual method of flowing text doesn't work.

Ah, this is a known bug but there's an easy workaround. You're using the End of Story position for your endnotes and you have more endnotes than will fit in the final frame of the story. When that happens, the Text Flow Out control is covered up.

Open the Layers panel. Click in an endnote and you will see the layer selected in the panel. It is a child of a parent layer so select the parent by clicking on it. This will select the parent text frame and now the Text Flow Out control will be visible.

Hi mogsie, 

we're aware of this issue which occurs with word documents imported into Publisher. Hopefully we can resolve this soon.
