Another reason to use Text Frames rather than Graphical Text is if you have you documents translated this works MUCH better. I have seen do done both ways and if you use Graphical text the layout person has to remember to see if the translated text is hidden under the edge of the graphic frame. If you use the Text Frames then the text wraps with in the frame.

Doing this also enables us to insert cross-references for callouts, which adds similar navigation to graphic hotspots. ;-) Rene Stephenson Fred Ridder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Gillian Flato asked (in part):> > Does anyone know why I can't apply styles to them globally?

Callouts created with the drawing tools cannot be manipulated with named styles because they are not paragraphs in the text flow. They are lines of characters in a graphic frame which is entirely separate from the text flow even though it is surrounded by it. _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live Hotmail and Microsoft Office Outlook - together at last.
