Text Boxes from .pdf

[rushingabout]

On the .pdf to affinity progs: I transferred an old PagePlus file to .pdf and then into Publisher. Trouble was all my text boxes separated paragraphs and in some cases single lines in a paragraph so that had to be edited singularly. I tried cut and paste into a new text box but it was a nightmare.
PP had a WritePlus option where you could edit the whole article. Would be nice in APub. Also AutoJustify was a great feature to make an article fit the frame. I did round off the resulting font-size and spaced accordingly, afterwards.

Tick both boxes and try again, this is from the open screen . I am not sure how it works with placing.

it worked on a lot of the text boxes  but not all, thank you. it seems now to box around different fonts or other changes. it's a start. Thank You.

Me and PDFs don't get along with the whole import thing. I love them for being a Portable Document Format and that is about it.
