How to reposition body text in a document

I have a document that was originally based on the Invoice template. This has the body text in a right hand column, and somehow this is now misplaced on the page. Turning on View > Show Layout shows the bounding box of the body text, and it is placed too far below the header. If this expands to a second page though, it actually overlaps the header.


I can't figure out how to modify the layout and reposition these boxes where the body text is placed. I also don't see how the second page is managed, as it is also incorrect.

It isn't clear to me what you're seeing. The Invoice template that I have doesn't have a page header, so there's nothing to overlap if the invoice table spans a second page.


OMM, there is a space between the top of the page and where the text 'Attention:' line starts, but that's only achieved by some blank lines typed in the document. It's easy enough to delete these blank lines and 'shift' the text up.
