When you insert a picture into Microsoft Word 2003, the picture will be placed in line with the text. As is often the case, the document will have a much better look if you create some space around the picture—a feature known as text wrapping. In MS Word 2003, you can specify the picture's distance from surrounding text and the style of text wrapping you want to use.
