Anyone good with InDesign? Specifically looking for help with text boxes.

[grace0418]

I am working on a fill-in keepsake book that has many pages of prompts followed by journal lines.

Example:

The best part of the trip was_______________________________________
___________________________________________________________________

Some of the new friends we met ___________________________________
___________________________________________________________________



the text box so the lines fill-in around the text and look nice and even, but can't seem to find it in the help or manual. Anyone know? Thanks!

1. I'm just not sure of what you're asking.

Can you clarify?

It sounds like what you want is for a block of copy, with another block of lines running beside and below it, and you want those lines to wrap around the copy block. Does that sound accurate? Can you post a picture, or maybe a screenshot?

2. Try a table, maybe?

You could put everything into a table, and use Strokes & Fills in "Cell Options" to make the lines. You could split the cells horizontally as needed so the lines could start exactly where you wanted them to.

(Having said that, I don't think InDesign's table formatting is the most intuitive, but it does the job.)
