: Text-wrap in Illustrator CS6 I typed out text in 14pt. I then typed another letter in 131pt out. I was hoping to have my 14pt text wrap around the 131pt character...but to no avail!

You need to make sure the wrap object (in this case the outlined letter T) is above the text, and in the same layer.

Set the area type box - you must click-drag with the type tool to create a box, then insert the text into the box.
set the drop cap character
if you want the wrap to be rectangular around the drop cap. Select the drop cap and choose Object > Text Wrap > Make





if you want the area type to wrap the contour of the drop cap - Select the drop cap and choose Type > Create Outlines, then choose Object > Text Wrap > Make




When applying a text wrap, you only want to select the object to be wrapped. Nothing more.
