How to get rid of frames, but keep the text in the same place? - scanned document
Well, at worst you can select all the text in the frame and Cut, then Paste
in the desired location outside the frame. Alternatively, you could remove all the frames (using Remove Frame and F4 as suggested) after numbering the frames in the desired order. In other words, just type 1, 2, 3, etc., at the beginning of the text in the frames to make it easier to reorder the content after removing the frames. -- Suzanne S.

Assuming that the frame is not part of the paragraph style, this will remove the frame. It will also, however, remove any other direct paragraph formatting, and, as Cindy points out, the text in the frame will be inserted above the paragraph to which it is anchored, which will be chancy. If you want to remove the frames as she suggests, you can double-click one frame border to open the Frame dialog, select Remove Frame, then select the next frame and press F4 (Repeat), continuing till all the frames have been removed. Thanks for the help. Ctrl+Q pretty much destroys everything. It's very frustrating that I see ASCII characters (letter, numbers, and spaces), but I cant save it as a text file that way. Maybe I need to buy a new printer - one who's OCR software doesn't but all the text in about 20 frames on each page. There's got to be some solution - because I can SEE it. I just can't edit it properly in those frames. |
