To apply text runaround to a line or text path in front of a text box, select the line or text path, choose Item > Runaround, and then choose an option from the Type drop-down menu:

• Choose None to run text behind the line or text path.
• Choose Item to run text around the line or text path. You can specify the distance text maintains from the top, bottom, left, and right edges of the selected item. If the selected item is a text path, other text will only run around the path, not the text on the path.
• Choose Manual to create an editable runaround path. You can specify a new path’s distance from text, and then you can modify that path by choosing Item > Edit > Runaround. For information about modifying a runaround path, see “Fine-tuning a runaround path” and “Editing a runaround path.”
