This solution looks pretty inconvenient, as the figures are not automatically resized to match the defined arrangement in the frame. Or am I missing something? Also, according to your explanation, I do not see how you can arrange 4 figures in a, for example, 2 x 2 distribution. When you say "The figure is anchored as a character. This permits me to place two figures into the frame and have the figures centered." I presume this is only to put 2 figures in a 2 rows x 1 column arrangement. Am I wrong? If so, could you explain how to arrange 4 figures as 2 rows x 2 columns in the page?
