How to 'lock' graphics in place when converting to PDF

[PDarbyshire]

Hope someone can help here

I have written a long report that has about 20 graphic images pasted into position. All is great within NWpro

However.....

When I convert the file to a PDF all of the images jump to other parts of the document and do not stay 'In place'.

I have tried setting each graphic to inline with text, moves with and position on page but nothing is working and every time I convert to pdf they jump about the page.

I've spent over 4 hours so far on trying to get this report ready.

Any advice hugely gratefully appreciated

Cheers

I had something like this come up. The key, I think, is the anchor spot. I wanted to put a scanned signature on a line, but while it was fine in Nisus, the signature graphic jumped up about 4 lines on any save/export to PDF.

What finally fixed it was moving the anchor to as close to the line as I could where I wanted it. The anchor tends to jump to the beginning of a paragraph, which then moves the graphic in subtle ways.

Try with one graphic--move the anchor around. See if you can get it to not jump. Once that works, you can move on to the next few. It's tedious, yes. But I think once you get the hang of moving the anchor it will go much faster.

thanks a lot for help Vance

Couldn't get this to happen though as the anchor ALWAYS jumps to the beginning of the line/para at left side. Can't 'position it' anywhere else. Tried changing the position options in the settings but no luck I was trying to 'anchor' the graphic to the heading that said "Figure one" or whatever so they would stay together but they didn't.

I'm sure this must be one of these "easy" things, one you know what the answer is Maybe a Nisus staffer/guru can help us.

For the report, I had to do the unthinkable and save as word doc then edit and format it from inside word. Hateful programme and defeats the purpose of using Nisus but no option as report was urgent.
I really need to get this sorted before my next report job.

Cheers and Best Wishes,

Philip

Hello Philip, I'm sorry for the trouble, that shouldn't occur. It sounds like a bug in our page layout or PDF production. If you wouldn't mind, could you share your document with us privately using the menu Help > Send Feedback so we can try to reproduce the problem?
