Anchoring Graphics

If you insert a graphic via Insert > Graphics > From File..., it will be anchored to a paragraph. This means that the graphic is joined to this paragraph and will be moved with the paragraph, yet does not necessarily follow the paragraph. If, at the end of a page, there isn't enough space for the graphic, then text of the next paragraph is pulled up to fill the page and the graphic is placed at the top of the next page. Should that be undesirable, then the graphic should be anchored as character. To anchor the graphic as character is highly recommended. This makes it much easier to handle more than one image in a single paragraph. Images can also be anchored into an empty paragraph so that the paragraph orientation defines the positioning of the graphic.

As character should be recommended. This makes it much easier to handle more than one image in a single paragraph. Image can be anchored into an empty paragraph so that the paragraph orientation will define the positioning of the graphic.

  1. Right-click the graphic.

  2. Select Anchor > As Character. This places the graphic into an empty paragraph and prevents another paragraph from filling in space above it.
