Hello,

Can I use Filler text for multiply places? And once only? Because now if select Filler text, then add to many times, but I need only one time, no more. And on second page at twice (like a paragraph). Can I use fill text like I want?

Or create multiply text boxes, and fill thats only? I used one textbox for book formatting, but I tried modelling with more header with more filled text.

If you only want the Filler Text to appear in one Text Frame, I think you need to make sure that the Text Frame does not have a forward link to another Text Frame. Then the Filler should fill only that box. But you should be able to use it in as many unlinked Text Frames as you want.

If you go to the Text menu and choose ‘Expand > Expand field’, the filler text will become editable.

Yes! That's great tip, this what I need! Many thanks for this trick! This worked in one text frame too, and no need linked textboxes. Great!
