How do I avoid wasting space with a large picture in my document?
Hello,
I have a Word document (Word 2003 if it makes any difference), and I want to insert a flowchart that I created in PowerPoint as a picture. The flowchart is pretty much the full size of a sheet of paper. My problem is that if I insert the picture, it goes into the text where I inserted it. Normally this is exactly what I want, but in this case, I would prefer it if the text before and after the picture would move around to fill up the space before the picture, rather than leaving a (potentially) large amount of space on the last page before the picture. Can this be done? If so, how? I hope this is clear. If anyone has any ideas, I would be very grateful. TIA -- Alan Silver (anything added below this line is nothing to do with me) |

Instead of inserting the 'picture or graphic' in line, right-click and select Format Picture (or Object) and choose one of the wrapping options (Square is a good choice). Then you can move the graphics up or down the document and the text will reflow around it. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "Alan Silver" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the reply -- Alan Silver (anything added below this line is nothing to do with me) |
