2. To get both the text and the image to show up and have the text wrap around the image,
click on the selection tool in the Tools Palette. Select the image and go to Element 4 Text
Wrap. A dialogue box similar to Figure 2.39 comes up. This Text Wrap dialogue box lets us
specify how we want the text to flow around the graphic boundary of the selected object.
It also gives us options for the Standoff, i.e. the distance between the text and the image
after wrapping.
Figure 2.40: Text Wrap Options
If we click on the second icon in this dialogue box (rectangular wrap) and click OK the text
flows around the image as shown in Figure 2.40. We can similarly wrap text around any
image or drawn graphic element.
