Go to Word>Preferences>View and turn on "Object Anchors" so you can see what
you are doing.
Then click the picture, and an Anchor symbol âš“ will appear somewhere on the
page where you pasted the picture.
Drag it to the beginning of the paragraph ABOVE where you want the picture
to appear.
Then drag the picture where you want it.
Any object whose Layout is set to anything other than "Inline with text" is
a "floating" object, and is anchored to the paragraph you choose when you
paste it in.
Every floating object is anchored to a paragraph: you need to control which
paragraph (and it must be a paragraph that will remain on the page the
picture is on).
Hope this helps

Hello - after I paste a picture and then change the text layout to "tight"
Word typically jumps to the beginning of the document, sometimes taking the
picture with it, sometime just putting the cursor up there. Any help on how
this might be fixed would be appreciated.
