I am writing a document of 30 or so pages and have about that many pictures.
Is their a way to fix the pictures (and a text box) in position as I add or
edit text?Essentially I have the pictures and want to add descriptive
material as I go.
It's a frequently requested feature, but no, Word can't do that. Every
floating object (pictures and text boxes) is "anchored" to a specific
text paragraph. You can specify the object's horizontal and vertical
positions (in the Format Picture or Format Text Box dialog) as being
relative to the page instead of relative to the anchor. However, if
the anchor text moves to another page, the object will also move to
that page.
