When using Word, how can we keep the line numbers intact after inserting a picture to the left of a text?

When I want to place a picture next to a text I typed, the line numbers (on the left) are partly hidden, I just have the units. I don't think I was ever able to solve this enigma. 🤔

Are you using the auto line numbering?
I don't think that should be affected as they are positioned out of the document text area... Have you tried moving the left hand text margin in you the right?

@Convivial Yes, it's as if the picture was framed although the frame isn't acknowledged. If the picture is placed to the right of the text, there's no problem.
