Working with Text

Connecting text boxes

As you work with text boxes, you might find that a text box isn't large enough to contain all of the text you want to include. When you run out of room for text, you can use the Link command to connect text boxes. Once two or more text boxes are connected, text will overflow or continue from one text box to the next.
