Text and pictures in a document 
are always placed in frames. You can 
have up to 100 frames per page, and 
up to 8,192 in a single document.

DISPLAYING THE RULERS

Use the rulers to help you draw and 
position frames accurately on the 
page. To display the rulers, choose 
Show rulers in the Options menu. 
If the rulers are displayed, this 
command is checked.
CHANGING THE RULER SPACING

Select Ruler spacing... in the 
Options menu to choose the unit of 
measurement used throughout the 
program:

*    Picas and points
*    Centimeters
*    Inches and tenths
*    Inches and eighths


SETTING THE COLUMN GUIDES

You can also use the column guides 
(in addition to rulers) to help you 
draw and position frames accurately. 
To set the column guides, choose 
Set column guides... in the Options 
menu.

When the form appears, select up to 
9 columns, and specify the amount of 
space to be left around and between 
them.
SNAPPING TO THE COLUMN GUIDES

Frames automatically "jump" into 
position (snap) when drawn, moved 
or sized. The left and right edges 
of a frame will snap to the column 
guides, and the top and bottom edges 
will snap to the nearest ruler unit.

Choose Snap to guides in the 
Options menu to turn snapping off. 
This command is checked when 
snapping is turned on.

TEXT RUNAROUND

When you put a frame over another

is pushed aside by the top frame.
To allow text to flow under a frame, 
select the frame and choose Text

You can also specify an area of 
"padding" around the frame.
This command is checked when Text 
runaround is turned on for the
