Note: Vertically resizing inline or above line anchor markers might result in the object becoming overset. If the anchor
marker is overset, the object will be overset as well.
Resizing an anchored object might also reposition the object. For example, if you’ve aligned the right side of an object
to the left side of the text frame, and then you drag the object’s right side handle 1 pica to the left (away from the text
frame boundary), the object will resize and then move back 1 pica to the right.
Release an anchored object
If you no longer want an object to move relative to its associated text, you can release it to remove its anchor.
?
Select the anchored object with a selection tool, and choose Object > Anchored Object > Release.
The object’s position on the page doesn’t move.
Note: Release doesn’t work for inline or above line objects. If you can’t use Release, select the anchored object and then
cut and paste it. You can also use the Type tool to select and cut the anchored object.
Articles (CS5.5)
Introduction to articles
Articles provide an easy way to create relationships among page items. These relationships can be used to define the
content to be exported to EPUB, HTML, or Accessible PDFs; and to define the order of the content. You can create
articles from a combination of existing page items within a layout, including images, graphics, or text. Once an article
has been created, page items can be added, removed, or reordered. Articles can be created manually by dragging one
or more page items to an article in the Articles panel.
You can also add bulk content to an article. Adding selected content to selected article, or adding an entire document
content to an article is supported.
Note: The XML structure panel provides another mechanism to decide the order of the content to be exported to the ePub,
HTML, and Accessible PDF exports workflows. The Articles panel is designed to be simpler, easier to use, and more
accessible, for people without XML skills. However, the ability to use the XML structure panel has not been removed; it is
now an option alongside the use of the Articles panel during the export process. See
Structuring documents for XML .
