InDesign, select the Apply Photoshop Clipping Path option in the Image Import
Options dialog box.
Text frames inside a group ignore any text wrap you've applied to the group.
•
To prevent the text in a frame from wrapping around text wrap boundaries, use the
•
selection tool to select the text frame and choose Object > Text Frame Options.
Select Ignore Text Wrap, and then click OK.
You can move the text wrap boundary anywhere you like on the current page or spread,
•
and you can reshape the wrap boundary so that it looks nothing like the frame.
Creating path type
You can format text to flow along the edge of an open or closed path of any shape. Apply
options and effects to path type: Slide it along the path, flip it over to the other side of the
path, or use the shape of the path to distort the characters. Path type has an in port and an
out port just like other text frames, so you can thread text to and from it.

A. Start bracket B. In port C. Center bracket D. End bracket E. Out port indicating threaded text
Keep the following points in mind as you create path type:
The alignment setting in the Paragraph palette controls the alignment of path type.
•
You can include only one line of type on a path, so any type that won't fit on the path
•
will be overset (hidden), unless you've threaded it to another path or text frame.
You can apply character and paragraph options to path type. However, paragraph rules
•
and paragraph spacing options have no effect on path type.
You can't create path type using compound paths, such as those that result from using
•
the Create Outlines command.
To create path type:
1 Select the path-type tool
2 Position the pointer on the path until a small plus sign appears next to the pointer
and then follow these steps:
To type using default settings, click the path. An insertion point appears at the start of
•
the path by default. If the current default paragraph settings specify an indent, or any
alignment other than left, the insertion point may appear somewhere other than at the
start of the path.
