I have used wrapfig earlier and have got very satisfactory results.
But now I find a problem. I am using wrapfig to insert figures and
tables in a two-column document in the report class. I find that some
text appears along the side of the figures even when the figure is as
wide as the column. I use pdflatex, but it does not give any errors.
The same is the case with tables also. I use some other packages also
in the document, including graphicx, geometry, palatino, fancyhdr,
color, colortbl and longtable, apart from multicol and wrapfig. I
tried disabling geometry and longtable, thinking that there could be
some clash between the packages, but there is no improvement.

Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening?

Thanks.
