I've got a LO that is mostly journaling with a couple pictures. One of the pics is on the middle right hand side of the page & I want the text to wrap around the top, side & bottom of it.

Do I have to use 2 text blocks or can I do that with one text block? How?

thanks

you need to make a Rectangle path and type on that path. it will automatically wrap around all four sides

oops....sorry for some reason I thought you were using Photoshop, didn't notice that it was in the PSP threads....but...if PSP allows paths you could try that

You could use multiple text boxes. But the way I do it is get my text box in place and then just add manual "enters" where I want the line to end. It takes a bit of work but I don't know any other way to do it in PSP.

I ended up using multiple test boxes. It turned out ok. I was just hoping there was a way to get the text to wrap around the pictures like on a web page layout.

thank you. I'll have to write the instructions down as I watch it & give it a try. :)
