Reply To: Cutting text thread and retaining the layout

[Rhiannon Miller]

There's a script called SplitStory included with InDesign which basically automates the first method Furry describes (cutting the frame, pasting it back into place, and deleting the overset text in the previous frame). Or Rorohiko does a free plug-in called Text Stitch, which has an unstitch action that can break every text thread on the spread. I do this quite a lot!
