Formatting and layout
Some hyperlinks do not appear in the converted publication.
If your print publication contains hyperlinks in rotated text boxes or rotated AutoShapes, or text boxes or AutoShapes with BorderArt, these hyperlinks will not function after you convert your publication into a Web publication. You can restore the hyperlinks in your Web publication by returning any rotated text boxes or AutoShapes that contain hyperlinks to their original position, or by removing BorderArt from text boxes or AutoShapes that contain hyperlinks.
All of my text appears in a single column.
Multiple column layout within text boxes is available only if you are working on a print publication. If you convert a print publication with multiple columns into a Web publication, your text will be reformatted into a single column. You can create multiple columns in a Web publication by creating separate text boxes for each column that you want and then linking these text boxes.
- To create a second column, click Text Box
on the Objects toolbar. - In your publication, point to where you want one corner of the text to appear, and then drag diagonally until you have the text box size you want.
- Click in the text box that you want as the first column.
- On the Connect Text Boxes toolbar, click Create Text Box Link
. - Click in the text box you want to use as the next column.
This text box is now connected to the first box.
- To connect more text boxes, repeat steps 3 through 5.
