Adjusting text box sizes without adjusting font size. How?

339 views2 repliesLast post: 8/23/2003
I have looked at the manuals which talk of point type and paragraph type but failed to make this work properly. Perhaps some-one can show me where I'm going wrong?

Whenever I change the size or shape of a text bounding box the font size changes with it. I need to keep the font size the same for consistency. I want the type to wrap in the box as the box size is changed. Finally I will make the box size fit the text and not the other way round. I'm sure this possible can some-one put me straight.

Thanks John I
