Flowing text into an existing frame
When you import text, you can flow it into a new frame or an existing frame. If the frame
is empty, you can click the loaded text icon in it to flow the text. On the leftfacing page
of the opening spread of this article, an empty sidebar box with the subhead “local stats”
is ready for the text describing the woman on the page. You will import a Microsoft Word
document into this frame, apply a paragraph style, and try two methods for fixing orphans,
which are defined here as a single word on a line. Orphans are also known as “runts.”
Tip
InDesign provides many features for automatically and manually con-
trolling how text flows through columns and frames. These include the
following paragraph formats Keep With Previous, Keep With Next, and
Keep Lines Together, along with Column Break and Frame Break charac-
ters (Type > Insert Break Character).
