I copied an image from MSPaint and pasted it into a Word document I'm working on. For some reason the image hides behind the text even with the default "in line with text" setting. Trying other settings don't work as expected either.
It does the same when I insert a picture from a file.
Can anyone shed any light what would be causing this and how to fix it – I am guessing some formatting issue in the existing document?

Since the image is inline the problem might be that the paragraph line spacing is set to "Exactly". When this happens the image is cut off to fit inside the paragraph.
You can check if exact line spacing is used by looking under paragraph properties. To do this right click the paragraph the image belongs to and choose Paragraph. If Line Spacing is set to Exactly then change it to something else, for example Auto.
