InDesign Inserting Text (automatically flow)

Inserting Text

  1. Go to the File menu and select Place > Find text file.
  2. Navigate to your document and click Open. Your cursor turns into the Place icon (). Click in your document where you'd like the text to be placed – the text box will fill the spaces between the margins. Remember, you can always move and resize it.
    • If you want the text to automatically flow to the next column or page, hold down the Shiftkey on the keyboard as you place your text and a slightly different icon will appear ().  Now pages will be automatically created as needed.
    • If you hold down the Alt key instead, you will still get the autoflow icon (), but it will not automatically create new pages. As you click on your document, if there is more text, the icon will remain. Click again somewhere else to place the rest of the text.
    • You can also designate the size of your text block by clicking and dragging a square as you place the text.
  3. Note that if you place text from Word, the Word styles will carry over and can be edited as described in the Formatting Text section below.
