I have a document with several dozen images in it. They are all in exactly the right place - but they are all unanchored. Now I need to make some text edits, and before I do, I have to anchor all these images to the line of text before them. Is there a quick way to do that?

    1. Select the object you wish to Anchor with the Selection tool.
    2. Then click on the mysterious blue square to the upper right of the object
    3. And drag to an insertion point in your text.

    This will make the object into an Anchored object position in it's original position.

    See screenshot below.
