3. Click the loaded Place cursor near the bottom of the page, above the
filmstrip graphic but within the margin guides.
The resulting text frame is automatically created as wide as the defined margin guides,
and extending down to the bottom margin guide on the page.
Placing text from a file
automatically creates a text
frame to contain the text.
4. Choose the Selection tool. Control/right-click the text frame and choose
Fitting>Fit Frame to Content.
With a text frame selected, you can also click the Fit Frame to Content button ( ) in
the Control panel.
When working with a text frame, this option reduces the frame to the smallest possible
size that can contain the existing text.
5. Press Command/Control-Shift, then click the bottom-right bounding box handle
of the frame. While holding down the mouse button, drag to the right. When the
Scale X and Scale Y fields in the Control panel show approximately 125%, release
the mouse button.
As you drag the frame handle, pressing Command/Control allows you to resize the
type along with the frame. Pressing Shift constrains the scaling to maintain the original
height-to-width ratio.
The Scale X and Scale Y
fields in the Control panel
shows the percentage to
which the frame and its
content are being scaled.
