When I use the screen capture feature on a Mac desktop running Mojave 10.14.6 and then paste the screenshot into Word 2016 for Mac, a black line appears below the screenshot. I'm not using the shadows/3-d elements in the screen capture. I don't want the black line to appear. Not sure if it's happening with the screen capture, or if Word is adding it.

Please make sure the 'underline'is not turned ON/active in Home Tab. When you paste a picture in a line or paragraph where underline is turned ON/active, then there will be an underline appearing below the picture as well. Just turn off underline after selecting the picture. Hope this helps. !

I just found another post regarding Word. If I change the "wrap text" setting in the picture properties to "Square", the black line disappears.

    Are you pasting on a line with underline formatting?
