Step by step
  1. Drag a frame

    Take the frame tool and drag a box. Text wraps at the frame width and clips at its height, with the frame outline visible while you write.

  2. Pour the overflow

    Copy that does not fit raises a marker on the frame. Drag from it to a second frame to link them · the story pours on.

  3. The thread is real

    Select a linked frame and its thread shows. Pull the line away to cut the connection and everything reflows.
