I am not a skilled MS Word user and I am trying to insert some .jpg
pictures into a standard Mac word document. I am using Mac OSX 10.4.2
and Word 2004 v11.2. The problem is getting the pictures to insert, and
stay, where they were placed.
I must be doing something wrong so these are the steps I have been using:
- I place the cursor at the end of a sentence and mouse on
Insert/Picture/From file
and select the picture. and use the Insert button. Please note I do NOT
have the box checked that says "Treat picture layers as separate
objects" but the picture shows up in the word document.
- The picture is usually too large so I select the picture as an object
and use the upper right corner marker to resize the picture to about
what I need.
- While he picture is still selected, I right-click and then select
Format Picture and go to the sub panel called Layout. I have tried both
the Square and the Tight options.
This is where I then get in trouble trying to place the picture in the
right place in the document. Sometimes it is on the wrong page and I
cannot seem to drag it to another page. When I try it jumps to the top
of the page then I cannot move it down over other objects.
I deleted several then tried to insert them one at time and they then
got all jumbled and our of order.
Help! What am I doing wrong
