SUMMARY
In most cases the automatic text-wrap feature in Microsoft Publisher will prevent text from overlapping. It is possible to create the effect of overlapped or superimposed text; however, the text must be in separate text frames.



MORE INFORMATION
To achieve the effect of overlapping text boxes, follow these steps:
 * 1) Draw a text frame in your publication, and insert your text.
 * 2) On the Format menu, click Text Frame Properties.
 * 3) Click to clear the Wrap Text Around Objects check box, and click OK.
 * 4) Draw a second text frame that overlaps the first. Insert your text.
 * 5) To format the frame as transparent, press CRTL+T.
