244 Text Handling

• INLINE WITH TEXT - This is the default option. The graphic stays inline with the text with
no text wrapping, like this , and behaves as though it's a large text character in the
text.
• TEXT WRAPS RIGHT - The graphic will be positioned to the left of the text column with
text wrapping to the right.
• TEXT WRAPS LEFT - The graphic will be positioned to the right of the text column with
text wrapping to the left.

The MARGINS options allow you to add some space around your graphic, so it doesn’t
appear too close to the text or to the edge of the column. You can specify different values
for each of the 4 sides of your graphic, or use the lock buttons if you want to have the
same margin top and bottom, or left and right, without entering the same values
repeatedly.
Additionally in the "INSERT" menu, the "BREAK" > "MOVE BELOW EMBEDDED GRAPHIC"
option enables you to force the next paragraph of text to start below the graphic when
you have text flowing to the left or right of the embedded graphic.

After embedding the graphic, to move it around within the text area, simply click and
drag. You will see a blue rectangle appear to indicate where the object will be
repositioned if you release. If the object is inline and on a line of its own (no text to its left
or right), dragging it left or right within the same paragraph changes only justification. If
the embedded object is set to have text flowing to its left or right, or the object is dragged
from one paragraph to another, the drag behavior is different

• Dragging the object near to the left edge of the text will set it to text flows to the right.
• Dragging the object near to the right edge of the text will set it to text flows to the left.
• And dragging it near to the center will set it to be inline center justified on a line of its
own (no text shown on either side).
You can't embed an object by dragging it over text, you will still have to cut / copy it to the
clipboard, insert the text caret into the paragraph and then paste. If you drag an object
out from any text, it will become its own independent entity.

When you embed a single object in text, you can directly select that object in the text
instead of selecting the “Embedded group” that encloses it. Look at the Status Line (on
page 68) and the Page & Layer Gallery (on page 447)! to see this in action.

Bulleted and Numbered lists

Bullet Lists
You can turn any text into a bulleted list by selecting the text and then selecting
the bulleted list button on the InfoBar.

Each paragraph of text becomes a separate bullet. If you press return to finish a line at
the end of one bullet point, the next line starts with a bullet point too. If you hit backspace
