You need to insert a new page from the Add Pages menu top left and chose from One column, two column or three column.

Mar 29, 2014 7:33 AM in response to vinnyvgby Buck from Round Hill,Thanks, Vinny but I tried that with same result. I am typing in the template text box and it just will not flow to the second page. The help guide indicates it should. Is there a setting I need to check? I have tried to check the format of the text box and can't see a setting that would help. Maybe I should just delete the embedded text box and put in my own and then see if it works. Thoughts?

Mar 29, 2014 4:51 PM in response to Buck from Round Hillby vinnyvg,When you start a book from a saved version of the default template - you start normally with Chapter 1 > Section 1 > Page 1.
The Chapter page above - shows a NONE flowing text box, you can change the text font, size and colour and stretch a little, but not much - if you paste too much text, some will not be visible and a + will appear to tell you so!
Sedction 1:
On the left is a NONE flowing text box - on the right is a FLOWING text box and you can see the little blue handles top left and bottom right of the box. They show when you select the box and indicate the text will flow and create new pages if needed.
page 3 ( in this Chpater)
Again, this is a FLOWING text box and the blue handles can be seen.
IF you had pasted - say 10 pages of text - into the right column of Section one - it would have flowed into page three and then added another page and repeated intil all the text was in place.
I think you have not yet resolved which page type and text box you are dealing with.

Jul 30, 2016 7:28 AM in response to vinnyvgby j.fromhewitt,Hello Vinnyvg,
I am a bit confused. Could you explain in a bit more detail. I know I am not in a flowing text box. How do I make it 'flowing?' I originally used a template, changed it to a word processing document, and am still confused, it appears that at one time the text was flowing to a different page. As stated, I am confused and any assistance you could offer would be appreciated.
Thank you so much!
Jenny
