I was a bit fuzzy. What I meant was many books put the (smaller) images 
to the right or to the left of the printed side with text to the left or 
to the right side and perhaps over and/or beneath the picture. Not 
surrounding the image (at all sides) as I wrote. Sorry. So your 
observation is correct I think.

Yes!
But --- rewriting the stylesheets are time consuming and I am not sure 
it is desirable at the moment.

As David sugested: putting (a link to) the existing Win help installer 
on the GIMP website will be a good solution? The main question from many 
users are: Where to find the downloads I needs? The logical place is at 
gimp.org.
