Picture Positioning
Why does Word allow pictures to go into the footer area of the page if the
"move picture with text" option is selected and I add text before the picture? When I've got pictures get low on the page, I need to manually insert carriage returns to force that picture to jump to the next page. That screws up my formatting if I end up having to take a paragraph out or add some more. Isn't there a setting that will force Word to move pictures to the next page if there isn't enough room for them? -- Hmm...they have the Internet on COMPUTERS now!

Put the picture into the cell of a table that is set so that the row is not
permitted to break across pages. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Picture Positioning
If the pictures are formatted as In Line With Text, they will behave the
same as text, but that isn't always what you want, since sometimes you need text to flow back up and fill the space above a picture that has moved to the next page. -- Suzanne S.

Picture Positioning
How do I put a picture in a table cell? When I copy the picture, and put the
cursor into the cell and hit "Paste", the picture isn't put into the cell. It appears back on the page where it used to be. -- Hmm...they have the Internet on COMPUTERS now!

You have to change the wrapping of the picture to In Line With Text.

As I said to Suzanne, for some reason the "Inline" option is not available.
Does it make a difference that I've actually got several items (a photo, a text box, an arrow) grouped together, and it's that resultant object I want to position? -- Hmm...they have the Internet on COMPUTERS now!

What's odd is that I don't have that option available anymore....it's ghosted
out and not selectable. These "pictures" are actually a grouping of objects...like a photgraph, an arrow, and a text box grouped into one object. Does that make a difference?

Yes, if the group includes drawing objects, then I guess it becomes a
drawing object. Drawing objects can be made inline in Word 2003 but perhaps not in earlier versions. What would happen if you copied the whole thing and used Paste Special | As Picture? -- Suzanne S.
