Hi folks,
Please see the image attached - this is one text box set to three columns, and the black square is just a box with text wrap applied to it.
Is there a reason why the lines never match up (the middle column verses the third column, and is there anyway for me to fix this.
Many thanks

I've re-created it in InDesign, and you're right - I've never noticed before.
Been clicking around, but haven't found a solution yet...

The easiest solution is to align your text to an appropriate baseline grid.
Actually, it's the same answer whenever you want your lines of text to line up.

If you change it to 'Wrap around bounding box' as opposed to 'Wrap around object shape' that will cure it.

Hi thanks for the replies. I tried the Wrap around bounding box, and it did the same thing? The only difference was that with wrap around shape was that it set up automatic offsets (so the text was still mismatched, just a little further down).
The way I've been getting around it is just making two text boxes - one with two columns, one with one, and doing it that way. It seems odd to me that InDesign wouldn't have an easier automatic solution.
