There are two ways to flow text in Adobe InDesign: by placing it on a new page or by creating a new text box, as illustrated in the step-by-step guide below.
- To flow text or continue overset text in Adobe InDesign, select the text frame to activate it, then click the ‘+’ icon in the lower-right corner of the frame.
- The hidden text is now attached to your cursor, indicated by a change in the frame color and icon. You have two ways to flow the text:
- You can go to a new page and click to place the text, allowing it to flow seamlessly within the blank document.
- Or create a new text box by dragging your cursor (while holding the loaded text) beside the first text box to form columns, or draw a new text box on another page.
