SYMPTOMS
When you open a Microsoft Publisher 2000 publication in Publisher 2003, the text that flows around pictures may reflow in an unexpected way. For example, the text may wrap in different places, and some text may overflow its text frame.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because Microsoft Publisher handles text wrapping differently between Publisher 2003 and Publisher 2000. Because of the different ways that the two versions of Publisher handle text wrapping around pictures, Publisher 2003 incorrectly converts the publication for the Publisher 2000 version.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
 * 1) Select the picture that overlaps the text in the text frame.
 * 2) Right-click the picture, and then click Format Picture.
 * 3) Click the Layout tab.
 * 4) Change the Wrapping Style from Square to Tight.
 * 5) Click OK.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
