Inserting text frames
Insert text frames easily with a built-in mouse interface. A new built-in mouse interface can be used to insert a text frame into the document. The end-user can then click into the document and draw a frame which determines the position of the text frame. After releasing the mouse button, the new text frame is created and inserted into the document.
