15. A document requires us to draw shapes and also some images on the page.
While images need to be overlapped, placement of shapes and images is not
proper. What could be the reason?
A: Arranging images needs to be set for positioning of objects. Arranging an image means
to determine its vertical position relative to other images, shapes drawn or text.
Arranging is to control how images can be stacked according to text or other images.
The 4 common settings along with special setting for drawing objects are:
i. Bring to Front: It will place the selected image on top of any other images or text in
the page.
ii. Bring Forward: It will bring the image one level up in the stack (z-axis). If there
are more overlapping objects, we keep repeating arrangement to obtain the desired
result.
iii. Send Backward: It will send the selected graphic or object like shape one level
down in the object stack.
iv. Send to Back: It will send the selected object shape or graphic to the bottom of the
stack, so that other images and text cover it.

drawing object will be set behind or in front of the text respectively.

16. What does Anchoring images means? How many ways are there to Anchor
images?
A: Anchoring images – Anchor refers to the reference point for the images like page,
paragraph or a character or frame. An image always has an anchor point to decide how
image would hold on to that document. This positioning of image can have anchored to
move with the text or fix the position of image on page. Here are the ways you can
anchor images or drawing objects:
• To Page: The graphic keeps the same position in accordance to the page margins. It
does not move as you add or delete text or other images thus preventing it to move to
a new position. It is applied when the graphic does not need to be visually associated
with a particular piece of text. For example, in newsletters or other documents that are
fixed to place logos in letterheads.
• To Paragraph: The graphic is associated with a paragraph and moves with the
paragraph. It may be placed in the margin or another location so that image will move
only when associated paragraph moves.
• To Character: The graphic is associated with a character but is not in the text
sequence. Image moves with the paragraph by placing it in the margin or another
location. It cannot be used with drawing objects.
• To Frame: It refers to anchor the graphic in a fixed position inside the frame that can
be anchored to the page, a paragraph, or a character, as required.

to either side of it.
• Wrap Left: This option is used if you want your image to be on the right side and text
on the left side.
• Wrap Right: This option is used if you want your image to be on the left side and
text on the right side.
• Parallel or Page Wrap: In this option the text flows around the image. The text is
rearranged to fill the space to the left and right of image.
• Optimal Page Wrap: Optimal Page Wrap prevents text from being placed to the side
of the image if the spacing between the image and the margin is less than 2cm.
• Wrap Through: It superimposes the image on the text. The image is in front of the
text preferably image to be transparent or watermark.
