    How do I move the picture to the bottom of the page?

    As in "beneath your other text"?

    As you have probably noted, the Handouts are very "touchy"

    Some have found that they have to put in "returns" in order to move sections down.

    If you search for Thomas Black's name in the Forum search bar you will find some suggestions for dealing with Handouts

    BUT Handouts (like the Note feature) are not a substitute for a good Word Processor/desktop publishing suite. Many find them difficult to work with unless doing very rudimentary presentatiosns.

    I have had to completely re-do some in order to achieve what you are asking. ie they next time try putting in the graphic and then enter in the text.

    I am sorry if this is "painful" or not too helpful.

    There are other very creative people here though, who might be able to provide better, more practical help.

    Regards

    Steve

    Steve,

     

    Thanks for posting.  And for your honesty.  Sounds like I'll have an easier time building what I want in Word. 

    I am perfectly fine with an answer of 'possible, but difficult'.  As with most  problems, usually more than one answer is available.

    I'll find an easier way.

    Pictures do not flow the way you expect them to do they.   They are (wrongly) programmed to stick to the edges of the document rather than obey the ordering you give it.  It is one of the problems I've reported on Handouts. 

    Unfortunately at this time I believe if you want better control, you should stick to word. 

    Handouts are "designed to provide an always ready to print handout".  While there are still many things in handouts to fix, this is one of those feature/bugs that I hope is near the front of the queue.

    See my sig for my main rant on handouts.

    Hmm Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.
