    Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one that doesn’t have issues with images in word.

      FR man. I spent 2 days trying to get an image to take up the whole of page 1 in a document but couldn’t make it work so ended up just printing the photo out and stapling it to the rest of the document

    PSA: Word isn’t layout software, it’s a WYSIWYG document editor. You can change settings to make it work more like layout software, but it’s better to use a layout tool if you need that.

    Recently I switched to using Affinity Publisher because it did everything I needed from InDesign. The only problem being, if I want to share files with anyone, I have to make sure they also have Affinity Publisher.

      I love affinity, it’s really really good. And I can actually fucking own it and don’t have to pay for it for the rest of my life

    The woes of trying to use those little anchors or finding the right formatting. It triggers some S&M tendencies.

    If youre adding images to a word document, you should be using publisher, not word. Thats like deciding to edit a video with photoshop instead of premiere. You could, just super inefficient.
