Question

I'm having a problem with breaks in my text boxes based on position on the page

Hi! The trouble i'm having (pictures attached) is when moving around text boxes there are breaks in the text that appear based on where I have it on the page. I have been searching through here, youtube, and reddit trying to find a fix but I keep coming up empty. I have tried to find text breaks, discretionary hyphens, and I have looked into the paragraph style and character style. I even double checked that everything on the page has text wrap turned off and that there are no floating shapes I missed. I'm lost, and when I try to find answers its never what I'm looking for. Can someone save me from this frustrating nightmare?

Would be easier if you posted the INDD file.

Apologies, I can't do that because this is a project for work and I can't share the material.

My only other guess is to find some hidden objects or layers.

Did you also check the parent pages to see if there are some text wraps on some objects?

I did! The parent page has nothing on it.
