LESSON 3: MAIL MERGE AND LABE
GENERATION
INTEGRATED IMAGES AND EXTERNAL
MATERIALS
Scenario 1: You were tasked to create and send out formal invitations
for a promo campaign that a company is running. You were also
initially given list of ten names of loyal costumer to send out to.
C. Tight
This is almost the same as the Square setting, but
here the text “hug” or conforms to the general shape of the
image. This allows you to get a more creative effect on your
document. This setting can mostly be achieved if you are
using an image that supports transparency like a .GIF or
.PNG file.
D. Through
This setting allows the text on your document to flow
even tighter taking the contours and shape of the image.
Again, this can be best used with .GIF or .PNG type of
image.
G. In Front of Text
As it suggests, this setting allows your image to be
placed right on top of the text as if your image was dropped
right on it. That means whatever part of the text you placed
the image on, it will be covered by the image.
