Text continues outside text frame


Recommended Posts

I have a text frame (not artistic text) on my document. When I type text when it reaches the right border of the frame it just continues outside the text frame. I assume that this is a bug because text should go to another line when reaching the horizontal end of the frame.

Anybody else experiences this problem and a possible workaround?

Thank you very much for your help.

Did you create that frame and text from scratch, or did you make it some other way? (E.g., copy/paste from some other application, Place a .docx, Open a PDF, etc.)

My guess would be that it's some setting applied to the text, which would be visible in the Character Panel. Often odd settings occur with pasted or placed text, but figuring out what happened can be tricky. If you could provide a copy of the .afpub document that would be helpful in making any further diagnosis.

Thank you Walt, your guess was correct. In my base style (this is the style I base all other styles on) inside the "Position & Transform" section, I selected "No break". That was responsible for the continued text outside the text frame. From the moment that was deselected, the text ran fine.

I appreciate your support very much. Have a nice day.

Chris
