A setting of 'Yes' would normally only be used to keep a text block and following image, table or text block from splitting across two pages.

To delete the image:
Alternatively:

- If taking a snip of the table from Word, ensure the Word zoom is set at 100%
- Ensure the image contains as little white space as possible around the outside
- Do not resize the image in any way, have the table in Word the correct size
- Save the image as a PNG file type
Images are added without any scaling, meaning they are placed in the report 'as is'. If the image is too large to fit on an A4 page, with the current margin settings, a warning will be displayed and it will be rejected. The image will need to be reduced in size and uploaded again. If the report margins are changed after an image has been added and that image no longer fits on the page, the image will be cropped in the output.
There are no options to rotate, crop, edit or resize images as we believe such actions are better handled in an image editor.
- Image one - width is 700 pixels. Resolution is 96 pixels per inch = 7.29 inches print width
- Image two - width is 700 pixels. Resolution is 72 pixels per inch = 9.72 inches print width
Even though both image widths are 700 pixels, image two would not fit on the page as the print width is too wide for an A4 piece of paper.
