Powerpoint Help

[Blue Dan]

I'm trying to wrap text around an image in Powerpoint. Does anyone know how to do it?

Do it in word, then paste it into PP. I'm pretty sure you can't do it with any of the PP tools.

Not sure if it will work mate but right click the image, go to layout and set it to tight, then just plonk the image right where you want it to be, even if it's right in the middle of some text. It should move the text to fit the image if I remember rightly. Let us know how you get on.

Cheers for the suggestions guys but still nowt down. You can mess about with the layout in Word but not in Powerpoint. There must be a way of doing it surely?

I would have thought so yeah... would be strange if they omitted it anyway

Got it mate, you have to set it up in word exactly as you want it to appear in powerpoint, and then you have to select all of the items in word, copy them to the clipboard, go back to powerpoint and click on the edit menu, then click on "paste special".

Good luck with that :-)

Nope. I'm afraid that doesn't seem to work either. Thanks anyway.

Don't know then mate sorry, that's what the Microsoft website says so shows how useless them lot are...
