Inserting Pictures In Word Documents

[Memnoch]

Hi,

When you insert a picture into a word document, how do you get the text to
go where you want it to? I can only get the text to go to a single line at
the bottom right of the picture. How do I go about doing a paragraph of
writing to one or both sides of the picture?

cheers

When you insert a picture into a word document, how do you get the text to

By default, Word inserts pictures 'inline with text'. You need to
change that to one of the wrapping options. The easiest way is to use
the Text Wrapping button on the Picture toolbar. Or, if you prefer the
long way, go to Format menu > Picture > Layout tab and select the
option you want. You can also press the Advanced button to get more
options, like which side of the picture gets text.
