110 Working with Text
To AutoFlow story text on the page:
• Click the AutoFlow button just to the left of the frame's
Link button.
If no other empty frames are detected, you'll be prompted to autoflow text into a
new frame(s) the same size as the original or to new frame(s) sized to the page.
If an empty frame exists anywhere in your publication, PagePlus will flow text
into that instead, before commencing with autoflow.
Linking text frames
When a text frame is selected, the frame includes a Link button at the bottom
right which denotes the state of the frame and its story text, and which allows
you to control how the frame's story flows to following frames:
No Overflow
The frame is not linked to a following frame (it's either a standalone
frame or the last frame in a sequence) and the frame is empty or the
end of the story text is visible.
Overflow
The populated frame is not linked (either standalone or last frame) and
there is additional story text in the hidden overflow area. An
Autoflow button also appears to the left of the Link button.
Continued
The frame is linked to a following frame. The end of the story text
may be visible, or it may flow into the following frame.
Note: The button icon will be red if the final frame of the sequence is
overflowing, or green if there's no overflow.
There are two basic ways to set up a linked sequence of frames:
• You can link a sequence of empty frames, then import the text.
• You can import the text into a single frame, then create and link
additional frames into which the text automatically flows.
