How to place text beside an image

I know there must be a simple answer to this, but I've looked high and low and can't find it! All I want to do is place a block of text beside an image.
I have created a div tag, inserted the image, then typed in the text - which positions itself below the image and seems to be locked there. Can anyone help? I've been at it all day....

Float the image left or right by using css:
img (
float: left;
The image would normally be in a container of some description, a <div> or table cell <td> so if its only a specific image or images then target only those images within a specific container using css.
So for instance if your image/s are in a container which has an id of 'myContainerName' then you would use:
#myContainerName img {
float: left;
You could also just add some inline css to the specific img tag, style="float: left;" (as below)
<img src="images/myImage.jpg" style="float: left;" alt=" " width="200" height="200" />

How to edit text in JPG image downloaded from Shutterstock? [was: help]

I downloaded a jpeg image from shutterstock.com to use for my baby shower invitation and was told that I would be able to erase the example text and add my own using adobe illustrator but having a hard time figuring this out. Please help.

You were mislead. Text in a flattened raster image (your JPEG) is essentially "burned in" and not editable or erasable in Illustrator. It is true that you could set type over (in front of) an image with Illustrator.
It may be possible to achieve the end result you want, but without seeing the image, it would be difficult to tell you how to proceed. Can you post a screenshot?

How to place a border on images?

My images' source are from bitmaps rather than file location. It is programmatically created and assign. Is there a way to add borders to this, probably something like:
image.borderWidth = 3;
I've tried using CSS skinning but have no succes to do so. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I think the best way to do that is to extend the Image component and give it some "borders" support.
Take a look at this post:

How to replace text with vector image in 3d space

Hello,
I want to replace the text in this template http://vimeo.com/15026094 with a vector image logo.
Any ideas would be helpful. Btw, I have CS4.
Thanks,
td

I finally took a look at your Vimeo example and I'd guess that the animation of the text was created with Text Animators and range selectors. As Mylenium said, and as I said
Reveal all of the animated properties that you want to transfer to your new layer. Usually pressing the U key will suffice.
Note: Text animations and shape animators will be ignored unless the new layer is a text or shape layer.
You need read up on Text Animators so you can understand them.
Type a question in the search field at the top right corner of After Effects.
And you'll find all of these resources. (providing you have the Adobe Help preferences set to search the web)
Animation presets will save all animated properties applied to a layer, but they will only apply the keyframes to properties that exist on the layer. Text Animators only exist in text layers so you'll have to animate your logo by hand or grab yourself a font creation tool and recreate your logo as a font.

How i prevent text converting into image when exporting as a HTML FORMAT IN ADOBE FIREWORKS?

]I am an architect and wants to design my basic website with minimum graphics.
I am using coreldraw for graphics design but it is related to print (Hardcopies) and corel is not smart soft compared to adobe software.
So, for web design, I started to learn Fireworks. After some practice, i m able to design web graphics in fireworks.
But the main problem is that, when that page is exported into html format. All text were converted into Image and it is not useful.

Fireworks was devdeloped to use with Dreamweaver. It's not a stand alone app for developing web pages. Adobe Muse might be more the kind of app you are looking for. First, however, Give this tutorial a try.

1) How do you identify text name used in an image? 2) How to move text in an image? 3) How to add text to match the existing text in an image?

Thank you!

1) You mean a font?
Knowledge, trial and error, and/or browse the various font sites to see if you can find a match.
2) The Move Tool (once text is added; see below).
3) You simply click on the document using the Type Tool, type out what you want and commit by clicking the checkmark in the options bar or by pressing Enter on your keyboard. You also use the options bar to change color, size, etc.
With the type layer active, browse using your installed fonts in the options bar. The type layer will change dynamically as you browse your fonts. (Note this is in Photoshop CC 2014; I don't believe it's in previous versions like CS6.) As I mentioned above, you probably want to find the ideal font beforehand and have it installed.

Best software or programme? : I have designs for cards done on a particular app, I need to import somehow typed text (old type writer font) to beside the image? Is something like illustrator or photoshop the best? For card design to then send to printers

Hello
I have started designing cards etc
I have been drawing items on two particular apps on my iPad, but I need to import some old school type writter style text alongside the image.
What is the best software or programme to do this?
I don't mind buying some good software
Basically I would like something in could draw with a stylus on ( or import these images from another app that I can do this on)
Then add bespoke text beside the image
Play about with positions, colours sizes etc
Has anyone tried any of the Wacom products??
These would all then be sent to printing company to print
Thanks for your help!

Ho do I wrap text around an image?

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to wrap text around an image so that it follows the outline of the image. The E.O. Wilson book has an example, but I have seen it in other books, too. I am using images that have their background taken away with Instant Alpha, but the wrap doesn't work reliably. I wonder if it is a setting I am missing or if Instant Alpha is just unreliable.
Here is what I do:
I drag the photo into a standard page in the chapter (not a chapter or section start page).
I then apply Instant Alpha.
The background disappears, but the text doesn't flow into the spaces.
My settings in the Inspector's Object Placement tab is as follows:
Anchored
Object causes wrap (second icon from left)
Text Fit (right icon)
Extra Space 16pt
Alpha 50%
No text flow. What sometimes works is if I apply a mask to the picture and then make it big enough to reveal the whole picture. Suddenly text flows into the space around the picture. But that is also not a reliable solution. It works sometimes, but not others.
My workaround right now is to create a shape with the pen tool that traces the image. Text flows around this shape just fine. I then place that shape where I want the image and turn off Object Causes Wrap on the image. I then group the shape with the image to make moving them easier. That is a huge effort, and I am sure there is something I am doing wrong.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Fiver

How to place a background image, so that the text layer, without having to use a text box

Hello,
I have a problem with the placement of the background image. When I normally formatted text on a page and add the image you want on the background of the text and the handle on the back is still image over text, just no longer responds to wrap text.
The second problem is adding a new page to the document. I have unfinished document and I need to add a page before the current ... how?
This is a new Pages.
Thanks for the advice

Helps to know exactly what version of Pages you are using.
I assume Pages 5.1. But the last post makes me wonder.
Text Wrap only works on text under an object. Either it is in front causing text wrap or it is in the background with none. It is unclear what you are trying to achieve.

Insert > Section Break/Page Break

Placing text beside image in a table cell?

I'm creating business cards (using a Printworks template), and I want to place text to the right of the inserted picture.
I've copied and pasted the jpg fine onto the left side of the cell, yet when I try to type text, the cursor only lets me begin typing at the bottom right side of the photo, not up at the top right side, where I want the info to start.
Further, when I try to insert a Text Box into the cell, it won't go inside.
So, my question: *How do I get image and text together inside a table cell?*

I made an ultimate test.
I grouped a jpeg picture and a shape in which I inserted a piece of text. You may see it on the screenshot.
I inserting the group in the cell hoping that the group will be correctly displayed.
Nada, only the picture appears.
If I select the object embedded in the cell, copy it, paste it in an other location, I may ungroup it but the now separated shape no longer contains the original text

How do I add text to an image?

I have purchased a template and imported it to Photoshop. I then sliced the template into sections, saved it for web and opened the index file in dreamweaver. My questions is, how do I add text to the images? I want to add the text content, within the boxes on the template, but because they are exported as images from Photshop I can't seem to do it...So let's say there is a box in the middle of the template and I want it to say, Services at the top and below that have a little information about the services offered with a "read more" button at the bottom. I have exported the template out of photoshop with text added and with the boxes empty. I tried to add the text in dreamweaver but couldn't. When I export the sliced template out of photoshop with the text already included, it does show up in Dreamweaver, however it is not in html and I would like it to be for SEO purposes. Forgive me if this question is silly or already answered, I have looked everywhere and couldn't find the answer.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.

Hi,
I prefer to use tables for that. For example (First of all you have to store this new file):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>AddedText</title>
</head>
<body>
<table width="40%" border="4">
<tr>
    <td>Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><div align="center"><img src="yourPicture.jpg" alt="image 01" width="127" height="33" /></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td>Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text </td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Here I took a table with only one column, you can modify my choice.
There is so too a possibility to use a complete flow text around a picture. If you like that, please give me a shout.
