This is Word for Mac, but the basic behavior is the same across Mac and Windows. Let’s just start out with a photo that I dragged onto a Microsoft Word document. In fact, once you get the hang of it, you might find yourself deliberately distorting and stretching your images to create striking visual effects! For everyone else, however, a little too much power can be a confusing thing and can result in frustration as images don’t do what you want them to do in your documents.įortunately the solution is pretty easy once you understand how Microsoft presents the so-called “handles” that let you move, distort and resize your images. For power users, this means you can have a lot of fun making things visually interesting and fine tune exactly how big an image is versus the text surrounding it. This is a prime example of that because Microsoft Word has a lot of ways you can tweak, adjust and modify a photograph, image or picture that you import into a Word document. The three positioning options appear below the image.Sometimes having too much power is more dangerous and troublesome than having a limited set of options.
Select the image you want to change the position of.Break text: This option is like text wrapping, but the image will act as a break-meaning text will only appear above and below the image, not to the left or right.Use this option if you want to move the image to another location in the document.
Wrap text: This option causes the text to wrap around the image.However, this option gives you less freedom to move the image where you want. The image will move with the text if additional text is added or deleted. In line: This option aligns the image with the text.You'll need to change the text wrapping setting if you want to move the image freely, or if you just want the text to wrap around the image in a more natural way. This is because of the text wrapping settings on the image. You may notice that it is difficult to change the position of the image to another location in the document. Sometimes when you insert an image or a picture from a file, you may find that you will need to change the position of the image or resize it to make it look well placed in your document.
