Have you followed the advise in Help->Embedded Objects->Section 3.2.2? I've copied the advise below: Quote Note: Text wrap float floats are fragile! E. g. having a figure too close to the bottom of the page can mess things up in the way that the float doesn't appear in the output or that it is placed over some other text. In general: • Wrap floats should not be placed in paragraphs that run over a page break. That means that wrap floats should better be inserted to the exact place when the document is nearly finished and you are able to estimate where page breaks will appear. • Wrap floats should either be placed in an own paragraph before the paragraph where they should wrap into or within a paragraph. • Wrap floats in consecutive paragraphs may cause troubles, so assure that there is a text paragraph between them as separator. • Wrap floats are not allowed in section headings or tables. EndQuote It seems you may want to wait until your document is finished and then adjust as necessary, Cheers, /Bob
