      I was given multiple files made up of all the books of the Bible. I need to reformat it and nothing is changing when I change the primary text frames of the master pages. It is currently with two text frames on each page and I want to remove one text box and make the other text frame larger and create larger margins. I am fretting over having to do this manually. Can anyone help?

      Hi Erica,

      without seeing your documents, it is difficult to give you a good tip here! The Primary Textframe doesn’t work every time as expected and sometimes the document pages lost their connection from the masterpage and it helps if you shift-select every document page and apply the masterpage again with alt-click.

      However: If you have two textframes on each masterpage and I assume you have facing pages and those frames on each page are threaded (even/odd), you can have only ONE Primary Textflow per masterpage, not two!

      So, if nothing happened, chances are good, that you have no Primary Textflow and maybe Layout Adjustment can help. But to give you a good tip, you should provide a example file with a detailed description, what you try to achieve.
