When you're working with pictures or objects and text, you can really enhance your document by having your text to wrapped around your picture or your object. How you do this is click on whatever picture or object you want to—you want to have text wrap around. So go ahead and click on this picture here and then go up to your Page Layout tab and then over in the Arrange section were looking for the Position button. Click on that button and your first choice is Have Inline With Text which is what it is now. There is no text wrapping.
If you hover your mouse over the other options it’s going to show you what it’s going to look like if you were to apply this option. You can do it in the top left, in the middle, in the top right, you can also do them in the middle and down at the bottom. We’re going to go ahead and I think the top left looks best here. Select it and it puts it in the top left with the text wrapping around it. Now let say that you want the text a little closer to the picture or maybe further away. You can tell where exactly how far you want the text to be from your graphic when it’s wrapping the text.
So to do this make sure that you still have your object or your picture selected that you are wrapping the text around, go back up to position and click on more layout options. You have your wrapping style selections here as well, as well as options to wrap text on both sides on the left only, on the right only or in the largest only were going to go ahead and keep the settings that we already have. Now distance from text here you can specify what distance you want the picture to be away from your text at the top bottom left and right.
Well top and bottom, were going to leave it zero. Left was going to leave the same because that’s just our margin over there but the right I'm going to go ahead and change because I want my text to be a little tighter to the picture. So instead of .13 I'm going to change that to .07 click okay. And you could see there is less space now in between my picture and my text, I have a tighter wrapping.
