Absolute positioning is a double-edged sword. It's great for getting something exactly where you want it, but it means it falls outside of the traditional layout so text and other document objects simply ignore it like it wasn't there. From my experience you either have to go all in with absolute positioning (where everything is positioned), or try to ensure the objects / text in the flow take into consideration where the image will be and leave enough space accordingly. Either that or take off the positioning and stick it directly in the page content (or if it's a single page document use the static regions).
