you may find that you need to make it larger
or smaller in order to achieve the desired
effect Fortunately, doing so is easy When you select an object in an Office file, handles appear around that object; you can use these handles to make the object larger or smaller
You can also move objects that you place in
a file.

How can I wrap text around an object?
If you insert an object into a Word or Publisher file, you can control how text in the file wraps around the object For example, you may want the text to wrap tightly around a clip art graphic; alternatively, you might prefer for the text to overlap an image Regardless of your preferences, you can establish text-wrapping settings by clicking the
object, clicking the Text Wrapping button in the Format tab, and
choosing a wrap style (•)
• When you release the mouse button, the object moves to the new location.

effect to an image to make that image appear
as though it was rendered in marker, pencil,
chalk, or paint Applying certain other filters creates an effect reminiscent of mosaics, film grain, or glass You access these artistic effects from the Format tab on the Ribbon; this tab appears when you click to select the object to which you want to apply the effect.
