graphics-only page

[valentin tihomirov]

All Word drawing objects must have an anchor (a paragraph). But how do I put
one big picture on a page without any text? Word takes one line from my
text, puts this single line on a new page and covers it with the image. This
efficiently hides a line from text and should be avoided.
Embedded objects generally tend to jump around in my documents. I do not
have any knowledge howto attach images to documents. As a programmer/HW
designer, I frequently need to prepare documents, diagrams describing my
designs.
Are there any good guidelines on the net about making good-looking documents
and illustrations, about positioning graphics in text?

You have correctly assessed the situation. Word does not permit you to have
a floating (wrapped) graphic alone on a page; it must be anchored to a text
paragraph. If you make the graphic inline, you can have it by itself on the
page, but you will have to fake the text flow around it. This is most easily
done when editing is complete.
