    Hi,

    Can you select the frame and then right click. Choose text frame options and check if the below highlighted option is checked ON.

    The frame is overset. How big is the text? Does making the text smaller (or the frame larger) have an impact?

    Are you sure that your text frame is not on a layer below the art?

    No, it's a text wrap issue, it comes up regularly on this forum – amaarora has posted the correct answer.
