7 Components: the Function Pages - Developers

Secondly, the correct size must be selected, so that the height of the
image matches that of the text.
Tip: Since the size relates to the width of the graphic, you may need
to experiment a bit before finding the correct expansion factor. It is a
good idea to work with the preview function instead of saving each
attempt.
Aligning images on a page using the attributes left and right
causes the text to flow around these images. There are a few opportunities
to influence the positioning of the file. If you want the upper
edge of the image to line up with the first line of text, place the image
link before the first word in the paragraph. If you insert it after
the first word, the first line will be written in full and the image will
be attached to the second line. Generally, if an image is announced
in a line, it is not displayed until the start of the following line. The
end of the paragraph has no effect on the alignment. In fact, the entire
subsequent text, including sections and tables, will be displayed
next to the image. In order to make the paragraph begin underneath
the image, place the following line directly before the respective
paragraph:
The line is then pushed far enough down until it has passed the edge
of the image.
It is possible to position one graphic image on the left edge and
another at the same height on the right edge. To do this, write the
links for the images with the varying alignment attributes one directly
after the other. The order does not matter. The text will then
flow between the illustrations. Text located between the two images
is joined with the normal continuous text and thus can, under certain
conditions, appear before the first image.
Tipp: The use of areas surrounded by and images in the
same paragraph can lead to both elements covering each other; this
should be avoided.
