The tight text wrapping option keeps the text as close as possible to the object. Unlike the inline option, the object does not remain anchored to a particular line in the text, but rather causes the text to move around it. Square text wrapping wraps the text around the object in a rectangular fashion. This method of text wrapping anchors, so to speak, the object to the surrounding text and moves with it as if part of the text itself.

Both can be found under the Shapes menu after clicking on the INSERT tab (see Fig. There are two types of arrows available in Word 2013, namely line arrows and block arrows. Click and hold the left mouse button, dragging to relocate the line, and then release. If you want to move the line, place your cursor just above it, until you see the move symbol. Holding down the Shift key while drawing a line will keep it uniformly flat, diagonal, or upright. When it has reached the desired length, release the mouse button.
