While working with paragraph text, it is very important to pay attention to ensure that all the text is actually displayed into frame. CorelDRAW will provide two warnings: the paragraph text frame will turn red, and a small black triangle will appear at the bottom of the frame (see Fig. 1). These warnings indicate that there is additional text within the frame that is not currently displayed.

To correct this, you have three options: click the small triangle and drag the frame down, or increase the width of the frame, or select all of the text and decrease the font size. When text fits within the frame, the small triangle will disappear and the frame color will revert to black.

Note: To avoid instances of hidden text, you can click Tools > Options > Workspace > Text > Paragraph Text and enable the Expand and shrink paragraph text frames to fit text option (see Fig. 2).
