Images in documents should have their layout set to “In Line with Text.”
Why?
Images inserted in line are tied to the place within the text where they were inserted and are treated like any text character “in line with text.” They automatically move with the surrounding text.
Placing images in line with the text ensures that the image and its alt text are read in a logical sequence, making the information accessible to all users.
How?
In Microsoft Word:
- Select a picture.
- Go to Picture Format or Format and select Wrap Text > In Line with Text.
