As a brand-new Macintosh owner, I have been very favorably impressed with its ease and apparent reliability. It does what it says it does, and with very few problems learning how. But there is one thing I want to do and cannot find how to do from the MacWrite or MacPaint manuals or menus: How can I cut a picture into one side of a page? As far as I can determine, MacWrite allows pictures to be inserted only across the full width of a page. If I change the ruler to make a narrow column of text on, say, the right, the picture I put on the left moves over into the area where I want the text. Is there any way around this? To clarify, the result I want looks something like this: Up to here the text is full page width, and now I _____________________ want to cut in the picture | | beside the continuing text. | | apfskiu7t v;laiu qflwki; vas | picture | cniujls a;liug caoiu8c awpo8g@p | | campodsi ;aslgkiu canlkdsaiuc a.sjh |____________________| adapvosud cliqdw8p psoutkr cdovsl vpsfoi va;lsiu v.ls ;lsifvs vpaosiv as;o9v spdokds vdslkfj lerk v/;of9v No this isn't rot13! Another question whose answer I think is "no" is: "Is there any way of making a double-size picture so that it prints out cleanly in high-resolution mode on the image-writer?" -- Martin Taylor {allegra,linus,ihnp4,uw-beaver,floyd,ubc-vision}!utzoo!dciem!mmt
