Question

Placing a large word document on InDesign - overset text

I am currently trying to re-format two 100+ page documents on InDesign. I'm new to the program and finding it very difficult to figure out how to solve this issue.

I place the text in my document using auto-flow, with the master frames checkbox ticked. Once I place my text, the document is blank from page 21 onwards.

The preflight panel is indicating that the text is overset. When I view my story editor the text is visible with a red line along the left hand side. I have tried all solutions suggested on various forums, but to no avail.

I'd really appreciate if someone could give me further advice on the above.

Thanks!

I can see you helped somebody with a similar query in this forum Please Help asap: overset text & blank pages

I wonder could you help me with my issue?

I am using InDesign CC. The following two screenshots show the Story Editor panel where I can see my overset text.

Thanks!

this is very difficult to find issue, without looking into indesign file can you share your indesign file?
