"Tightly" images not wrapping
I'm formating by black and white jpg images to "Tightly" for text
wrapping, but it's treating them as square. How does MS Word know where the border of the image begins so that the text can abut it? Thanks, Rich |

"Tightly" images not wrapping
If the image is square/rectangular, Tight and Square will be the same. Once
you've chosen Tight, however, you have the option to Edit Wrap Points, which allows you to fine-tune the edge of the image. -- Suzanne S.

How does MS Word know where the border of the image begins so that the text can abut it? Thanks, Rich After you set Tight wrapping, click again on the Wrapping button on the Picture toolbar and select Edit Wrap Points at the bottom of the menu. You'll probably see just four small black points at the corners, connected by red dashed lines. You can drag those points closer to the image; and by Ctrl+click anywhere on the dashed outline you can add more points and drag them. As you exclude areas of the picture's background, the text will move in to fill it. As an aside, the image doesn't have to be black and white. For the text to show up, though, it does have to have a light-colored or transparent background. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
