I dont know why, by description Wrapfig seemed the ideal package for
this. Will not using shapepar be a bit problematic across pages, if text
finishes on one page. Also, if there are such figures (at times two on
the same page) on every page, will text shaping have to be done at every
place. It could be useful to just have fixed figure and let text wrap
around figure with parameters in percentage of figure size telling where
text should indent. Can this be sort of automated?
Saying all that, the result of shapepar is pretty good, and real fancy
almost.

I couldn't find pdftosrc on my GNU, but could take out the source from
the pdf source.
