Add column, frame, and page breaks
Control column, frame, and page breaks by inserting special break characters in the text.
1. Using the Type tool, click to place the insertion point where you want the break to occur.
2. Choose Type > Insert Break Character, and then choose a break option from the submenu.
You can also create breaks by using the Enter key on the numeric keypad. For a column break, press Enter; for a frame break, press
Shift+Enter; and for a page break, press Ctrl+Enter (Windows) or Command+Return (Mac OS).
To remove a break character, choose Type > Show Hidden Characters so that you can see nonprinting characters, and then select and delete the
break character.
If you create a break by changing paragraph settings (as in the Keep Options dialog box), the break precedes the paragraph that contains
the setting. If you create a break using a special character, the break occurs immediately after the special character.
Break options
The following options appear on the Type > Insert Break Character menu:
Flows text to the next column in the current text frame. If the frame has only one column, the text goes to the next threaded frame.
Flows text to the next threaded text frame, regardless of the current text frame’s column setup.
Flows text to the next page with a text frame threaded to the current text frame.
Flows text to the next odd-numbered page with a text frame threaded to the current text frame.
Flows text to the next even-numbered page with a text frame threaded to the current text frame.
