    You know that Word has alignment tools that are easy to use and fix those issues don’t you? It looks like it was designed in paint.

      Aligning things in Word is a joke. So many times shit just decides it’s going to fucking being 3 spaces over there instead of directly below something.

      Paint however gives you pixel perfect placement.

        Word is great if you only have words in it. Add a picture? A chart or graph? Suddenly your words have become lemmings with oppositional defiant disorders and jump off the margins.

        I dunno maybe they fixed that in recent releases but I’m not paying for a SaaS word processor.

          You clearly don’t know how use Word :P

          Trust me it has a learning curve, once you learn how to align things properly and use the provided options in reasonable ways it doesn’t fail, ever.

        Using tables to align things reminds me of the early days of the internet before css really was a thing

        There’s a button that does what you want without much fuzz. You just have to actually lean how to use Word, like anything else.

          Of course there’s a button for that, what fools.

          Can you tell these fools what button that is and how to use it? Not for me obviously I know the exact button you’re talking about, but for the other fools you’re talking to.

            If you hover or click the picture a little anchor on the top left corner should pop up. Click it and some options should pop up that’ll let you select whether you want the picture to be in line with text, over the text, under the text etc. It’s been a while but I think you can right click the imagine, select format and one of the tabs on that windows should give you the same options.
