Default What is the difference between "through" wrap and "tight" wrap?

Insert clip art with a transparent area in the middle (like the space
between a horse's fore and back legs). At the bottom of the Text Wrapping
dropdown on the Picture toolbar, choose "Edit wrap points". Move or add
points to the outline so the transparent area is no longer inside the
outline.

Now the "through" wrapping will allow the text to show in the transparent
area. The "tight" wrapping will make the text conform to the outer contour
of the picture but not go into the transparent area. If there's no inner
transparent area, the two wrap styles behave the same.
