Publisher ─ Forcing text to flow after object


Recommended Posts

With a table image on the left, and descriptive text to the right of the image I need to have body text forced to be under the image. Example provided; body text circled.

I would like to achieve this without introducing new text frames. I am attempting to enable others to modify linked Word documents and have Publisher manage heavier formatting.

How can this be elegantly accomplished?

What do you mean by "under the image in this case? Do you mean that you want all of that circled text to be lower on the page, so that none of it is beside the image?

If so, select the image, then click on the Text Wrap Settings icon in the Toolbar, and choose Jump:

No. That won't work. And yes, I want the circled text moved down.
All text to the right of the image is not circled.

As stated:

So... The "descriptive text" to the right of the image (not circled) need to remain at the specified position. The other text needs to be moved down, hopefully using an elegant method.
I am quite familiar with the wrap feature capability.

You may have to break the text frame that holds the circled text and link to a text frame lower down. We only see a portion of the page so we can't really tell where the text is coming from. Plus you have the "middle section" text frame pinned (?) in the text frame along with an image. I don't quite know what it is that you want to accomplish in that there is no room that I can see on the pages panel's thumbnail for the circled in red text to go to.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Sorry; missed that aspect. So, Group the caption and image so they are one object.

You're welcome. That approach is often needed, and I should have mentioned it initially.
