1. In Print Layout view, check the box for "Vertical ruler" on the View tab
of Tools | Options (the vertical ruler is not displayed in any other view).

2. There are two ways to put text on top of a picture. It depends which is
more important (or voluminous), the text or the picture.

a. If the picture is the main thing, and you just want a few text
labels, insert the picture In Line With Text (the default) and use text
boxes to add the labels. You can use WordArt, but you'll need to change the
wrapping to In Front of Text.

b. If the picture is background, you can change the wrapping to Behind
Text, and then ordinary document text will lie on top of it.

To change text wrapping, click on a graphic object to display the Picture
toolbar. The Text Wrapping button (which opens a menu) is the one with a dog
icon.
