I can remove the text boxes and keep the text without this software, but the formatting is completely destroyed, just as it is with this software. Converting the text boxes to frames and the using ctrl-a and cntrl-q will leave the formatting but you have to process each text box separately. If I could select all the text boxes in a doc and convert to frames in one process that would be fine.

No funcionó, no les hizo siquiera "cosquillas" a los cuadros de textos, de un escrito bajado de Internet. Por favor enviadme un app válido.
