Mirror facing pages if you're using facing pages and you want
the object to automatically mirror its position in relation to
anchoring text moved onto a new page.
4. Check Keep within bounds to stop the anchored object from
being placed outside of the text frame. The object will move but

there is no restriction on object placement.
5. (Optional) For control of possible object overlap, select an option
from the If objects overlaps drop-down list.
• Allow the overlap. The overlap is left as is.
• Pack into lines means the second object will be placed
beside the first object if there is room, or below it if
not.
• Line up left to right/Line up right to left means the

the first object, respectively.
• Stack top to bottom/Stack bottom to top means the
second object will be placed below or above the first

1. Enable Position inline as character.
2. To set the object's vertical alignment with respect to adjacent
text, select an Align with text option. Text will not flow around
the anchored object.
3. (Optional) Enter a Offset Y by value to set the percentage to
which the object will be vertically offset in relation to its height.
