HELP! need help moving "main" text box in landscape form

Report · May 19, 2008

Hello. I am working with a table that is now in landscape. I imported it from another FrameMaker 7.2 file which was in portrait form. The table is ongoing (spills into the next page) and I need to be able to move the "main" text box that the table imported into. I am unable/unsure how to go about doing this?! I have to adjust this box because I still have headers/footers/colored border to add later on. Is it also possible to change the size of that "main" text box that automatically appears when you would first open up a blank document??

Hi kt,

it's quite easy, if I understand what you want to do...

Go to the Master Pages in the target document and either create a new masterpage - (called land2port) or alter the existing master page that is being used... You can change the size and position of the TextFlow frame... Then the save the document as a template - import your landscape table and apply the appropriate master page - voilla!
now you will have room for your headers and footers...

enjoy!
