linking text

The text suddenly becomes small in the next linking text frame.

Did You started on a new page? Did You placed an textbox from another page, document? I can't reproduce this.

That often send to indicate that one of the frames was resized by dragging the scaling handle (lower right handle that is not connected to the bounding box) rather than the loser right corner of the box. The scaling handle adjusts both the size of the frame and the contents.

I've also seen another post where this happened when pasting in formatted text from Microsoft Word, I think, with something unusual in it that Publisher didn't expect. But using the scaling handle may be more common.
