Adding pictures and frames to text

There are two ways to place pictures and frames—such as clip art,
spreadsheets, drawings, and paintings—in a word processing document.
You can insert them as inline objects, so that they move along, or flow, with
your text, or place them as independent objects that float on the page and are
not affected by the text.

Insert an object as an inline object when you want the object always to
appear next to specific text, or flow to the next line as you type more text.
Add a floating object when you want to wrap text around the object (see the
next section), or move the object with the arrow pointer.

To insert an inline or a floating object in a document, first show the tool
panel (choose Show Tools from the Window menu if the tool panel is hidden).
Then:

*

Choose Index from the

or Help menu and scroll to the entry. Then choose a topic from

the list and click Go To Topic.

To insert

Do this

An inline object in text

in the tool panel, and then

paste, drag, or insert the object.
