Operation Manual

Text 75
Shrink Text
Click to reduce the story's text size one increment (approx.
2%).
Each frame's story text can adopt its own individual autofit setting as
follows:
The AutoFit Options flyout offers three autofit options which
continuously act upon a selected frame's story text.
No AutoFit
This is the normal mode of operation where, if selected, text
won't automatically scale throughout the selected text frame,
possibly leaving partly empty frames at the end of the frame
sequence.
Shrink Text on Overflow
If selected, extra text added to a selected frame will shrink all
frame text to avoid text overflow.
AutoFit
If selected, the frame will always scale text automatically by
adjusting text size (compare to Fit Text which fits text once, with
any additional text causing text overflow).
AutoFlow
When importing text, it's a good idea to take advantage of the AutoFlow
feature, which will automatically create text frames and pages until all
the text has been imported. This way, enough frames are created to
display the whole story. Then you can gauge just how much adjustment
will be needed to fit the story to the available "real estate" in your
publication.
