MORE INFORMATION

On page 491 of the "Microsoft Windows User's Guide," two methods of embedding a drawing are described. The first method discusses starting from the application where the embedded drawing appears (client), such as Write. When this method is used and Paintbrush's Image Attributes are set too high, then the image causes Write to scroll down and appear not to display the image.
