Additional Information

Text only wraps on the layout page when it is part of a paragraph text element. The Word Wrap option only pertains to the display of the text box in the Format pane. It does not affect how the text draws on the layout page.

Workaround

Use the Rectangle text box option and check the Enable Word Wrap check box.
