Adjusting Text Around an Inline or Floating Object

Use the Wrap inspector to adjust text around an inline or oating object.

Here are ways to adjust text around an inline or oating object:

To make the text wrap more tightly around an object with an alpha channel, click the m

right Text Fit button. To make the text wrap more loosely, click the left Text Fit button.

To specify the minimum space you want to leave between the object and the m

surrounding text, enter a value in the Extra Space eld.

To set the alpha-channel percentage at which you want the text to appear through m

the transparency, see “Removing the Background or Unwanted Elements from an

Image” on page 143.

Text wraps around the

rectangular bounds of

an object.

Adding Page Numbers and Other Changeable Values

You can insert values such as page numbers, page count, lename and pathname, and

date and time in a document by using formatted text elds, which are automatically

updated by Pages when these values change. Although values such as these are

common in headers and footers (see “Using Headers and Footers” on page 54), you can

insert formatted text elds anywhere in your document.
