                4.   In the Caption Placement pane, set the vertical Alignment to
                    Top.  This will make sure the caption is positioned at the top edge
                    of the box.

                5.   Now click and drag the caption into the lower left corner.  Position
                    the caption so that it’s at the highest point up from the bottom
                    that you want it to be.

                6.   Enable both Text Box Size values.  Make sure both icons show a
                    blue lock next to the horizontal and vertical values.
                7.   In the Preview, click and drag the bottom and right anchor points
                    until they define the largest amount of screen real estate you want
                    your caption to occupy.

             The next step is to use the Text Box options.


             Text Box Options
             Text Boxes have two formatting options available that define how text will
             behave within the box boundaries.   They are definitely complimentary
             features, and are often used together.
                •   With Word Wrap enabled, regardless of the amount of text you
                    add, your text won’t appear beyond the locked horizontal
                    boundary of the Text Box.  If you disable this option, text may
                    appear to be “cut off”.

                •   The Shrink to fit option does exactly that: it automatically
                    reduces the font size in order to make sure your text fits within the
                    boundaries of the Text Box.
