2. Select the page element you want.
3. On the Format menu, click Position.

4. Specify the type of positioning you want.

   • To fix the position box at the insertion point — relative positioning — under Positioning style, click Relative.
   • To enable the position box to be placed precisely on the page — absolute positioning — under Positioning style, click Absolute.

   How?

   • To set pixel coordinates, under Location and size, specify a value in the Left and Top boxes.
   • Under Wrapping style, specify how you want the page elements to wrap around the position box.
   • To specify the z-order, which is the element's position in the layers of the page, specify a value in the Z-Order box. A positive value means that the element is in front of the main text-flow layer (layer 0), and a negative value means the item is behind it.
