Troubleshoot using Word to edit text

The object doesn't appear in the right place when I return to Microsoft Publisher.

If you add any pictures, shapes, tables, or drawing objects to the story in Microsoft Word, they will be converted to Publisher objects, and placed in your publication. You might need to re-position them.

There is more text than appears in the text box.

If there is more text than the text box can hold, Publisher stores the extra text in the overflow area, where you can't see it. If there is text in the overflow area, a Text in Overflow indicator appears at the lower-right corner of the text box.

Here are some ways to get your text out of the overflow area and back into your publication.
