How do you place text in a text frame, but with autoflow?

Aug 31, 2012 10:50 PM

I woudl like to place a tagged text file on a text frame rather than on a page, so i can put the contents into a pre-defined text frame, but still have the number of pages extended unitl the entire tagged text content is show.

 

I can get autoflow with  Page place() function, which takes an option to turn on autoflow. However, this creates a new text frame, and I'd like the tagged text to go into a particular text frame. Unfortunately, the TextFrame place function does not seem to have an autoflow setting, that will duplicate the current page and flow text into the new page.

 

Thanks,

    Hm,

     

    I would check for overflow, if then, create the new page, create your 'particular textFrame', set nextTextFrame of tf1 to your 'particular textFrame'
