10. Task 2 – Text Wrapping Using the Task 2 worksheet experiment with
different text wrapping options:
In line
Square
Tight
Behind Text
In front of text
You have 2 minutes to complete this…

11. Text Wrapping – most common…
Write down the following into your books:
The In line option treats the graphic as a text character within a line of text. It will move with the text surrounding it if new text is inserted or deleted.
The Square option makes the text wrap (flow) around the graphic.
The Tight style works in the same way as square but you can’t control the distance of text from the image for the top or bottom but you can for left and right.
The Behind text style results in the graphic floating on its own layer behind the text. This is useful for backgrounds.
The In front of text style results in the graphic floating on its
own layer in front of the text.

12. Task 3 Using the Task 3 – Instructions worksheet complete the tasks.
You will need to open the Task 3 – Arthur Terry Quirky News document too as this is the file you will be editing.
There is a completed example document for you to look at if you get stuck…
Hint: You will need to import the images from
the folder in the shared area…
