Split up the file, either by creating a set of separate documents or simply deleting parts to see if something makes the problem go away.

Keith Gilbert has what he calls his five "desperation tips" that are worth keeping in mind in case things ever get really difficult. General rules for troubleshooting anything also apply, such as narrowing down the problem. Instructions for doing this are easy to find, so I'll not elaborate here.

Save a backup and then trash the preferences file.

InDesign's preference file is messed up.

To verify, remove or substitute image on the problem page with known good ones. eps files, but even jpegs and tiffs can have issues. If this is the issue, fix or change the font. Check this by switching to a different, known good font (Myriad Pro, for example).

Save to IDML, then use that to create a fresh INDD, which will be smaller and free of internal errors. InDesign documents are actually database files, and as they are being worked on and edited they accumulate internal "cruft" that always makes the file larger and sometimes causes weird behavior. When the problem is with a specific document, here is the order of likelihood: When this kind of random, inexplicable behavior occurs in InDesign, there are relatively few reasons.

Unfortunate that I wasn't able to answer this at the time, but for posterity: Any clues out there? No threaded text exists at this point (one problem at at time, oy!), no hidden objects, nothing overly complicated. I've been searching for a solution for 2 weeks to no avail. I have tried copying/pasting a 'good' set of photo + text wrap into a new page to only have it undo the text wrap on ALL pages. Worst case scenario, "Ignore Text Wrap" undoes ALL the correct text wraps that already exist in the rest of the document. If I uncheck the box, the type appears again but runs across the photo. If I go to Object/Text Frame Options and check mark the box, "Ignore Text Wrap", the type disappears. If I drag it back into the appropriate page, the text disappears as mentioned above. If I drag the same photo and text outside that particular page, the text magically appears and is wrapped correctly. When I attempt to text wrap it, the text disappears, but the photo shows, as does the outline of the text box. I add a photo, it shows as under the type. If I set the text up, drop in placeholder text, it shows. On some pages, text wrap works perfectly! On other pages, the text wrap will flat-out not work.

The square indicates which style will be applied to the new graphic objects. * To make sure all the new graphic frames use this text wrap setting, the final step is to drag the little square from None to Basic Graphic Frame.

As a default, new frames do not use an object style.

For this specific question, our student wants Text Wrap on as default, but wants the Offsets set to zero on all four sides.

Customize the options in the Object Style Options dialog box.

In either case, I’d recommend approaching this via editing the Object Style called Basic Graphics Frame. For now on, that will be the default in this one document. To change the behavior in the current file, just deselect everything and change the graphics frame default.

The ones that are already created will not be impacted. So close! Changing the defaults with all documents closed will change the behavior of all new documents. Is there a way to change this in a current document or will it only work for new documents? Thanks so much for your help I hope all is great with you! Then I opened up my document and it still wants to default to. I tried the following: closed out of the document I was working on, selected the graphic box, and made the changes to zeros. Hi Barb, I am trying to set up my graphic box defaults so that every time I create one, the text wrap will always stay at 0 inches on all four sides.
