\item \ref{IMAGE_TEX_attribute} <img> \textbf{TeXheight} attribute
+\item \ref{IMAGE_TEX_attribute} <img> \textbf{TeXwrap} attribute This attribute
+ controls how the generated LaTeX attempts to wrap
+ text around figures when a horizontal alignment
+ has been requested in the IMG tag. Unfortunately, \LaTeX is
+ not really built to do this and there are no known perfect
+ solutions. This attribute has two possible values:
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item{parbox} - (the default) uses \newline and \parbox to position the
+ image. This positioning method ensures that the image is placed at
+ the appropriate side of the page, however very little or no text wrapping
+ is attempted. On the other hand, this method will never place text
+ on top of the image.
+ \item{parpic} - uses the picins package \parpic to attempt to get text to
+ wrap around the image. This method places the remainder of the text of
+ the paragraph containing the picture to the left or right of the picture.
+ This scheme has two drawbacks: If the remainder of the paragraph text is
+ insufficient to fill the area to the side of the image, the text from the
+ following paragraph will run through the image, parpic also seems to not
+ do a good job of honoring the end of the page, and images can spill below
+ the page footers generated by Lon-CAPA.
