Creating and Linking Text Boxes
In page layout documents, all text is in text boxes that don’t grow automatically to
accommodate all the text. When text in a text box is longer than fits in the box, you
can make the box larger, or you can continue the text in another text box and link it to
the first. Linked text boxes can appear anywhere in a document. For example, you
could begin a story on page 1 and continue it on page 4.
You can add text boxes to word processing documents as well as to page layout
documents.
The rest of the tutorial uses
this Page Layout template.
