Operation Manual

Working with Text 103

Frames can be linked so that a single story continues from one frame to another.

But text frames can just as easily stand alone. Thus in any publication, you can

create text in a single frame, spread a story over several frames, and/or include

many independent frame sequences. By placing text frames anywhere, in any

order, you can build up newspaper or newsletter style publications with a story

flowing from one column to another (below) or even across pages.
