One of the things you will want to do often is to add a text fram to your page.  To do so, select the Text Tool from the Toolbox, and then "draw" the text area on your page.

Having done this, you can adjust the size and position of the fram whenever you please.

To resize the frame, move your pointer over one of the "grab handles".  The cursor changes.  When it does so, you can drag the handle, and resize the frame.

To reposition your text frame, move the pointer onto the frame's border, and the cursor changes to a Van with the word "Move" on its side.  You can now move the entire frame.
