Before you can add text to a page, you need to create a place for it to go. You do that by
creating a text block, the second kind of object that you work with in this tutorial.
-
Click the text block tool In the
Tools palette. The text block tool becomes highlighted to show that it's selected. Note
that the rectangle is no longer selected. Its handles disappear when you select the text
block tool. You draw a text block in the same way as you draw a rectangle.
-
Drag the crosshair pointer from
within the second grid rectangle in the third row to within the fourth grid rectangle in
the bottom row (be sure to count the grid rectangles covered by the black rectangle on the
left side of the page). A dotted rectangle, indicating the edges of the text block, snaps
to the grid. Handles appear at each corner and side to show that it's selected. The text
block is in its final position, so you can lock it in place.
-
Choose Lock from the Object menu.
The text block is locked in position on the page.
