How are you creating a text area? The correct way is to first draw a rectagle with the text tool.
In this way, you can't have characters outside the text area. The text area is a rectangular bounding area which constrains and wraps the text entered.
If you are simply typing directly on the page with a hard return at the end of each line, this is NOT a text area.
Paste-in-place is not a resizing method, it's a method to copied clipboard objects to the same page co-ordinates.using any method to resize the text area, such as paste-in-place
If you want to resize a text area, you first select it with the text tool, then adjust the red-dotted bounding box via the corner control handles. Never use the shape editor for this (as you would with a shape) unless you are creating a page for output as a bitmap.
