Summary Graphics such as clip art, shapes, and photos add emphasis to text. The clip gallery is a collection of clip art images stored on your computer. When a piece of paper is vertical and is taller than it is wide, the orientation is called portrait. When the piece of paper is turned to its side and horizontal, the orientation is called landscape. You can search for clip art, photographs, movies, and sounds from the clip art task pane. The default text wrapping is “in line with text” and does not allow you to move the image freely.
