Good morning. I'm hoping your collective experience can help us decide the best way to handle this. I'd be happy to send a short sample to anyone willing to view this. Goal: Steps that need a graphic will have an anchored graphic positioned at right of that step, using as little manual adjustment as possible.
* Approach #1 - One text column is used. Graphics are anchored outside text box. Within the anchored frame, a text box is nested, where an auto-number format for figure numbers is used. o Pros - Graphics flow stay with step during pagination changes, etc. o Cons - Almost always requires manual adjustment for vertical spacing when multiple graphics/frames are on the same page. The graphic must be manually aligned within the frame to account for adding the text box (with figure # label). * Approach #2 - Two text columns are used; one is for the body of the document, and the other is only for the figures and their graphics. o Pros - Vertical spacing is nearly automatic. No text box within the anchored frame is needed. o Cons - No true link between steps and their graphics. Must designate the 'figure' paragraph style or the 'figuretopofpage' style to get the right pictures on the page.
