    I asked because as I’m reading through the book, foolishly thinking I know InDesign pretty well, I keep seeing a bunch of small things I didn’t know(!). I didn’t want to assume that was what was referenced.

    Thanks for clearing that up!

    David, I imagine in some darkened office somewhere, a janitor is mopping the floor when a cry of “Why won’t you just wrap properly?” comes from behind an office door, as you try to find that hidden object causing unwanted text wrap in InDesign. Or do I just have a good imagination?

    When you place text into the margins on the page, you shift-click to have it flow to new pages (If your preferences are set that way). I’ve done this multiple times with no problems. I think the problem you are having is that, for primary text frames, the way to get it flow through the two columns is a little different:

    1. Select the primary text frame.
    2. Go to File > Place and select the file.
    3. Make sure “Replace selected item” is checked!
    4. Click OK and it should place it properly in the primary text frame.

    *** If you select the file and try to Shift-Click to have it flow through the document, you’ll get a NEW frame of a single column placed over your primary text frame. From your description, it sounds like this is your problem.
