The Auto Wrap style makes the text object automatically wrap its text to the size of its bounding rectangle.

 

The Maximum Fill style makes the text object automatically select a font size so that the text fills the bounding rectangle as much as possible.

 

The Auto Reduce style.makes the text object automatically reduce the font size when the text becomes too wide to fit in the bounding rectangle.
