Background image pasted into a frame

  1. Do one of the following:

    • To paste one object inside a frame, select the object.

    • To paste two or more objects inside a frame, group them first, because a frame can contain only one object.

    • To paste a text frame inside another frame and preserve its current appearance, select the entire text frame using the Selection tool  or Direct Selection tool , not the Type tool.

  2. Choose Edit > Copy (or Edit > Cut, if you don’t want to keep the original).
  3. Select a path or frame, and then choose Edit > Paste Into.
