Insetting A Path - MACROMEDIA FREEHAND 10-USING FREEHAND Use Manual

You can wrap text automatically around a single object, including imported
graphics and composite paths, using the Run Around Selection command. The
command applies to objects, not to text blocks. However, you can use this
technique to create pull quotes and other text treatments.

Do one of the following:
1
•
To wrap text around a text block (to create a pull quote or other effect), apply a
stroke to the text block border and then apply Inset settings in the Object
inspector to inset the text from the border. Then select the text block. For more
information, see "Applying color to text and text blocks" on page 351 and
"Insetting a path" on page 206.

To wrap text around a graphic object, select the object. If the object has
irregular edges, draw a closed path around the object and select the path and
the object. (Apply a stroke and fill of None to the closed path.)
Choose Modify > Arrange > Move Forward or Bring to Front. The object (or
