Need solution for auto-fit problems

Avatar

Level 1

I've got a form with 7 text boxes that I'm looking to get copy to auto-fit properly. I'd also like to flow the content without having to start from scratch with a new form.

Here are my problems:

- "Expand to fit" is grayed out for both the height and width on every text box.

- "Allow page breaks within content" and "Keep with next" are also grayed out on every text box.

- I also have "make fixed-size text object auto-fit while editing" checked to perform in my options and it's not doing that at all.

HELP!!!! Thanks.

You will need to make the page these text boxes are sitting in 'Flowed' not 'Positioned' (in Object>Subform>Content of the page). That will give you the "Allow page breaks within content" and "Keep with next" options.

Tried this.  Didn't work.  All those items mentioned previously, as well as anything having to do with subforms, are grayed out. Even tried a new document with flowable layout, added text boxes, and everything is still grayed out.  Any other solutions out there?
