In the Insert image window, select the location where the image is stored. In the drop-down menu, hover your mouse cursor over Image, and select Image in cell or Image over cells. The three positioning options appear below the image.
Select the image you want to change the position of. Break text: This option is like text wrapping, but the image will act as a break-meaning text will only appear above and below the image, not to the left or right. Use this option if you want to move the image to another location in the document.
Wrap text: This option causes the text to wrap around the image. However, this option gives you less freedom to move the image where you want. The image will move with the text if additional text is added or deleted. In line: This option aligns the image with the text. You'll need to change the text wrapping setting if you want to move the image freely, or if you just want the text to wrap around the image in a more natural way. This is because of the text wrapping settings on the image. You may notice that it is difficult to change the position of the image to another location in the document. Sometimes when you insert an image or a picture from a file, you may find that you will need to change the position of the image or resize it to make it look well placed in your document.
