How do you resize text so it maintains its text location within a text box? It seems that when I resize the text some text jump from its original placement to an extra line and mess up the original layout. 

 

Using the transform tool, I am trying to proportionally resize page content...this contains text. It seems that the text size does not change, and messes up the layout. Is there a way to change this?

I'm not sure I understand your question. If you enlarge a piece of text in a text frame, it will be forced to wrap if it becomes too large to fit within the current width of the frame.

Hi LeviA,

If you create the text with the Artistic Text Tool is should enlarge as you expect simply dragging the bounding box handles. For text frames created with the Frame Text Tool you have to use the lowest handle on the bottom right of the bounding box  - the one that's actually detached from it - to scale the text. All the other handles over the bounding box will reflow the text.
