also add left and right margins to a paragraph without affecting its alignment.

Do one of the following:
•
Choose an alignment from the Type > Alignment menu. Choose Default Alignment to remove any existing
alignment from the paragraph.
•
Click the Align Left button
, the Align Center button
, or the Align Right button
on the toolbar.

To increase or decrease the paragraph’s right and left margins, choose Block Quote from the Type > Paragraph
Format menu.
If you’re using cascading stylesheets, make sure that the type of alignment matches the corresponding CSS style.

To wrap text around an image or object
You can make paragraphs of text appear to wrap around an image or other object, or create other effects such as a
title or caption for a picture, by aligning the image or object within the text. You can also use line break and nobreak
elements to control the way that a line of text breaks around an image or object.
1
Place the image or object at the beginning or within a line of text.
2
Select the image or object and choose Left or Right from the Alignment pop-up menu in the Inspector.
3
Drag the image or object up or down to the position that looks best within the paragraph.
Alignment settings
The Alignment pop-up menu in the Inspector for an image or other object provides the following options:
Default
Aligns the object with the baseline of text or adjacent objects in the line or the left side of the document
window or container.
Top, Middle, or Bottom
Aligns the top, center, or bottom of the object with the top, center, bottom, or baseline of
text or adjacent objects on the line.
Left or Right
Aligns the left or right side of the object with the left or right side of the line, document window, or
container. Any text in the line moves to the left of the object. If there are no other objects or text in the line, the object
aligns with the left or right side of the window or container.
Text Top
Aligns the top of the object with the top of text (the top of the tallest character) in the line.
Abs Middle, Baseline, or Abs Bottom
Aligns the center or bottom of the object with the absolute middle (half way
between the top and the bottom), text baseline, or absolute bottom (including text descenders below the baseline) of
text or objects in the line.
