Operation Manual

Text 137
Click on the page or pasteboard to create a new frame at a
default size.
You can also import text directly into a text frame which already exists
on the page.
To import text into an existing frame:
1. If using an existing empty text frame, select the frame. If
inserting text into a populated text frame, click for an insertion
point (or select a portion of text to be replaced).
2. Follow steps 1-5 above.
The text will be imported into the selected text object. For text
frames, the text may overflow your frame. To resolve this, see
Controlling overflowing frame text on p. 35.
Using artistic text
Artistic text is standalone text you type directly onto a page. Especially
useful for headlines, pull quotes, and other special-purpose text, it's
easily formatted with the standard text tools.
To create artistic text:
1. Choose the
Artistic Text Tool from the Drawing toolbar.
2. Click anywhere on the page for an insertion point using a
default point size, or drag to specify a particular size as shown
here.
