Problem

Solutions: FYI: A customer wanted to have a graphics box around newspaper columns. The customer has two options. They are as follows: 1. Draw each of the eight lines using graphic Line Draw. The customer will have to indicate the starting points and lengths of lines depending on how the columns are defined. This is the more tedious option. 2. Draw a figure box around each column. A. Go to the top of the page, after the column definition code. Press Alt-F9 for graphics, 1 for Figure box, and 1 to Create. B. Anchor the box to Page, skipping 0 pages. C. Set the Vertical Position to Full Page. D. Set the Horizontal Position to Columns, Column x, Full. E. Finally, set Wrap Text to No. The customer will have to do these steps for each column "x". In View Document, the boxes surround the columns, but they "touch" the text. To correct this, the customer will have to redefine the columns to be slightly wider. F. Place the new column definition code in front of the old column definition code. G. Do not turn the columns on. H. Move the figure boxes between the two column definition codes. The customer can view the document to see if the box is wide enough.
