Problem

Symptoms: A customer's graphics boxes are not printing correctly when she performs a merge. The customer's primary file has four text boxes. They are in a square configuration at the top of the page (two rows, two boxes per row). Inside of each text box she has merge commands which include the question mark (?) feature for instances when blank fields exist in the secondary file. Following the text boxes, she has some paragraphs of text. The primary file looks correct in View Document. However, after she merges, the paragraphs overwrite the bottom row of text boxes in both view and print. If she does not include the ? feature, the document doesn't overlap, but she gets blank lines where the fields were blank. Solutions: The customer's text boxes had the option Wrap Text Around Box set to No. Once this was changed to Yes, the merge worked correctly. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option.
