How to Increase the Margin Around a Bounding Box in InDesign
Adobe InDesign has a feature that gives you the ability to wrap your text around the bounding box of any object in your document layout. The bounding box is the area around the object that indicates its size in the document. By increasing or decreasing the margin around the bounding box, you are able to specify more accurately how you want the text to wrap. Indesign allows you to increase the margin of each bounding box on any side of the object.
