I have a (probably quite simple) question to do with text flowing around
positioned paragraphs.

I have a number of diagrams, some of which are large enough to create large
blank space at the bottom of pages if they are pushed to the next page.
What I want to do is position these (in print preview or similar) so that
they will stay, for instance, in the center of a page while the text flows
around and past it to fill in the blank gap at the bottom of the previous
page.

Unfortunately when I do this the text does not flow past onto the previous page
it just flows around the positioned diagram - only half what I had in mind.


Does anybody have suggestions - short of moving the text manually to the 
previous page (ie above diagram).


Thanks,
	Raymond.
