Inserting graphics boxes and text boxes

WordPerfect lets you insert graphics boxes and text boxes in a document. You can insert a text box and type text into it, or you can select existing text and place a text box around it.

You can change the appearance of graphics boxes or text boxes by customizing the default template. The new style is applied to the boxes in the active document and in other documents that use the same template.
