How to Wrap Text in Word

Microsoft Word helps you incorporate images and text together in order to illustrate a document. However, you should learn to wrap text around images in order to change the default settings. Text wrapping allows you to place text behind an image, in front of an image or around an image.


Steps


Adding an Image



  1. Place your cursor at the approximate place in the text where you want an image to be added. A mouse is useful for working with images in word, because you have more control of the size and shape when you can click and drag the image.





  2. Click the “Insert” menu at the top of the page. Scroll down until you find “Photo.” This will allow you to insert any jpg, pdf or other type of image that you have on your computer or drives into the document.





  3. Select “Photo Browser” to choose from the photo program on your computer. Choose “Picture From File” if your image is on your desktop or in another folder.[1]





  4. Click on your image. Then, click the “Insert” button at the bottom of the dialog box.





  5. View your image to ensure it is the one you want to incorporate. Keep in mind that Word’s default setting is to put the image “in line.” This means it will treat it as if it is a large letter or a tall line of text.





    • Image wrapping will allow the text to wrap around the image, go over the image or be beside the image.








Wrapping Text Around an Image



  1. Click on the picture with your cursor. This action will bring up the picture formatting menu in word. Clicking outside of the image will take the picture formatting menu away and bring you back to the text formatting menu.[2]





  2. Look for the button that says “Wrap Text. It may be inside the “Arrange” grouping or in the Advanced Layout tab, Drawing Tools tab or SmartArt Tools tab, depending upon what version of Word you are running.





  3. Click the Wrap Text button. You will get a drop down menu.





  4. Select one of the following text wrapping options according to your needs:





    • Choose “Square” if your image is square and you want to wrap the text around the square border of your image.

    • Choose “Top and Bottom” if you want the image to stay on its own line, but be between text on the top and bottom.

    • Choose “Tight” to wrap text around a round or irregularly shaped image.

    • Choose “Through” to customize the areas that the text will wrap. This is best if you want the text to be incorporated with your image in some way, or not follow the borders of the image file. This is an advanced setting, because you will pull or drag image points in and out of their original borders.

    • Choose “Behind Text” to use the image as a watermark behind the text.

    • Choose “In Front of Text” to display the image over the text. You may want to change the color, or it can make the text illegible.[3]



  5. Click on the image and move it around after you have selected your text wrapping option. The program will allow you to place it where you want it now, with the text flowing around it.





  6. Experiment with different types of text wrapping. Each image and project requires different types of text wrapping. Repeat each time you add a new image.
