Posted on by tiencn

I use Power Automate Desktop to Insert Text and JPG file to Word Document.
When I insert a text to word bookmark in a Text Box, it works; But I insert a JPG file to word bookmark in a Text Box, it dosen't work, and will Insert this JPG file to the head position place of Word file.

Have anyone knows why?

Word.LaunchWord.LaunchAndOpen Path: $'''Z:\\mytest.docx''' Visible: True ReadOnly: False Instance=> mytestfile
Word.WriteToWord.WriteEndOfBookmark Instance: mytestfile Text: $'''test text''' AppendNewLine: False Bookmark: $'''TextBookmark'''
Word.InsertImageToWord.InsertImageBookmarkStartFromFile Instance: mytestfile Bookmark: $'''JPGBookmark''' Path: $'''Z:\\jpgfile.jpg'''

mytest.docx

I think there might be a bug. Instead, how about using the "Run VBScript" action to execute a script like the one below?

GetObject("%WordDocumentPath%").Bookmarks("%BookmarkName%").Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture "%ImagePath%", False, True

The following is a copied desktop flow:

SET WordDocumentPath TO $'''C:\\Test\\Word\\mytest.docx''' SET ImagePath TO $'''C:\\Test\\JPEG\\jpgfile.jpg''' SET BookmarkName TO $'''JPGBookmark''' Word.LaunchWord.LaunchAndOpen Path: WordDocumentPath Visible: True ReadOnly: False Instance=> WordInstance @@copilotGeneratedAction: 'False' Scripting.RunVBScript.RunVBScript VBScriptCode: $'''GetObject(\"%WordDocumentPath%\").Bookmarks(\"%BookmarkName%\").Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture \"%ImagePath%\", False, True''' ScriptOutput=> VBScriptOutput

Hi @tiencn,

Change your textbox layout options into "Behind Text" as highlighted below and see it resolves your issue.
For me its working fine, after I made the suggested changes.

Hi Deenuji
I have tried your suggestion, but still the same, it dose't work.
If yours work, maybe our environment is different. I use Tradionnal Chinese Windows, Word365 and PAD.
Thanks you anyway.
