Screenshot attached. The text is threading into a small point in the middle of the page instead of the full text box. Anyone have any clue why this is happening or how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

It looks like the frame is zero width is normally is not allowed.

The file might be corrupt. Try saving it as IDML, open the IDML, and save-as back to INDD.

Enable hidden characters, also check your text in the Story Editor to see if there’s something that’s pushing it further; also check your paragraph styles for the same.

Hidden character is on. But there is something strange with the recto text frame.
