Combining text and objects

2 Select one of the following options, and click OK:

Justify Text Next To An Object

Justifies text next to wrap objects that separate a column of text. This setting takes effect

only when the text wrap completely interrupts lines of text so that each line is divided into two or more parts.

Justify Text Next To An Object

A. Option turned off B. Option turned on

Skip By Leading

Moves wrapped text to the next available leading increment below a text-wrapped object. If this

option isn’t selected, lines of text may jump below an object in a way that prevents text from lining up with text in
neighboring columns or text frames. Selecting this option is especially useful when you want to make sure that the text
aligns to the baseline grid.

Text Wrap Only Affects Text Beneath

Text stacked above the wrapped object isn’t affected by the text wrap. Stacking

order is determined by layer position in the Layers panel and by the stacking order of objects on a layer.

Ignore text wrap in a text frame

In some cases, you’ll want to turn off text wrap in a text frame. For example, you may want one text frame to wrap
around an image, but you may want a different text frame to appear within the image.

1 Select the text frame, and choose Object > Text Frame Options.

2 Select Ignore Text Wrap, and click OK.
