    Default Scaled down text with grouped with objectsdoesn't retain attributes

    What I use to take for granted in previous versions of InDesign doesn't work in CS2. I have some text arranged with some objects. I want to group them all together and scale them down to fit within a certain area. The objects scale down and so do the text frames, but the text inside the frames remains the same size and doesn't fit in the scaled down text frames.

    However, if I don't group the objects and text, the scaling does work and retains the formatted text. In order for this to work, there can be no grouped objects at all, not even one.

    AFAIK for groups the option "scale content" in the menu of the control strip has to be turned OFF.
