Wrapping text around cut out photo

[gkd 0]

I wish to run text around a photo that has had the background cut out.

I have cut the background out of the photo (transparent) and exported it as a PNG.

When I bring the photo into publisher and clicked on text wrap, the wrapping goes around the original edge of the photo rather than the remaining cut out area.

I have tried exporting the cut out PNG from Affinity photo as a  whole document and selection without background without success.

 

What am I doing wrong?

Should work from a quick test. What TextWrap property do you choose?

I use tight for text wrap, thanks for the reply

Mmmh - and still no luck? Can you put a color filled rectangle behind your PNG to check the alpha channel is really there?

Yes putting a coloured filled  box behind it works okay.

One last question before I run out of guess work: how is the image labeled in the layers panel? In German it says: freigestellt (Image) . knock-out?

Do you have real text in your text frames and can we have at least a screenshot?
