InDesign driving me crazy!

I hate graphics. I'm a writer, not a graphics person. I marvel at people who can make pretty things on the screen--I mage elegant text instead. That said, I can handle screenshots.

So, why is it that I can't get the *$$%^# software to accept the perfectly good $^%^$& previously existing shot, and have it inline with the text as is the previously existing shot ON THE PAGE NEXT TO IT?

I miss FrameMaker. Wah.

I might be able to help although I no longer have a copy to go to as reference... I too loved PageMaker but alas Adobe moved forward, not necessarily in a good way. I'm exhausted now though, hit me with an email tomorrow if you want.

:laugh: No, I detested PageMaker. We were trying to create 500+ page books in it at the time...could have something to do with the angst.

It was good for smaller collateral, but not wholly for the type of things I typically work on. Now, FrameMaker, I could marry. If I wasn't already married.
