Learn how to add images, shapes, sound, and movies to your
documents.
An object is any item you add to a document and then manipulate. Images, shapes,
movies, text boxes, tables, and charts are all objects.
This chapter focuses on images (photographs or PDF les), shapes, sound, and movies.
Many of the techniques covered in this chapter for placing and manipulating these
objects can be generalized to tables, charts, and text boxes; any special formatting
techniques for these objects are covered in other chapters.
What Are Floating and Inline Objects?
If you want an object to remain in place so that text on the page ows around it, use a
oating object.
Floating objects are anchored to a position on a page. Typing more text on the page,
does not aect the position of a oating object, but you can drag a oating object to
reposition it. Drag any of its selection handles to resize it.
Drag any of the
selection handles to
resize floating objects.
If you want the object embedded in text ow so it is pushed along as the text grows,
use an inline object.
