Wrapping Text with Image Alignment Options

When you insert an image, you have several alignment options. Here are two choices that allow text wrapping:

Alignment - Left: This option places the image on the left side of the screen, allowing text to wrap to the right of the image.

Alignment - Right: This option places the image on the right side of the screen, allowing text to wrap to the left of the image.

In both cases, the text will wrap with single-line spacing. To align the text with the top of your image, place the image at the beginning of your text.
