block or text frame.
• When you have a story that
cannot fit onto one page,
you will have to Thread the

Threading
Text in PageMaker is part of a Story and each story has to be placed
text
into a Text Block or Text Frame. When you have a story that cannot fit
onto one page, you will have to Thread the story over several pages,
or break it up into smaller stories.
Breaking the story up into several stories can limit your ability to make
changes to the story later on:
If used properly Threading can save you a lot of time because you
have fewer stories to deal with.
Normally, text that you edit as a unit should be contained in a single
story. When you edit one article in a newsletter, for example, you
don't want other, unrelated articles to change.
Note: When adding, removing or formatting text that has been
Threaded, all the changes you make will effect how the rest of the
story flows. You may have to take a look at all the threaded stories to
make sure they are still flowing the way you want them to, so that
nothing is missing.
