How do you load the text icon?

• A. Edit > Load > Text
• B. File>Place and select a text file or click an outport
• C. Window > Utilities > Text Icon
• D. File > Import > Text

Answer: (B)

Loading external text into a document is done with the Place command. Use File > Place and select the text file you want, then click inside a text frame to insert it, or click the outport (the small square at the bottom-right of a text frame) to flow the remaining text into a linked frame. This is how you bring in text from a file and populate your layout. The other options don’t follow InDesign’s text-import workflow, so they aren’t correct paths for loading text.
