  Step and repeat linked text frames

  Posted by George Haberberger on February 1, 2010 at 2:35 pm

  I need to make a grid of 180 text frames. This is easy using step and repeat but I want them to be linked so that I can flow a list of names into the first one and have it continue to all the rest of the frames in the grid. Is it possible to step and repeat a text frame that is linked?

  Not that I can find to do. I think that it (the program) would be confused as to which frame it should link to. I tried Step&Repeat, Copy&Paste, and Duplicate. No luck.

  ps-None of my comments are meant to be gospel. Otherwise, I would write a book that provided all the cold, hard, fast answers that everyone assumes are out there. These are the things that I have found to work well with my shooting habits and workflow. Always try things out for yourself and deduce the best workflow for you.
