I am using XeLaTex on OS/X. wrapfig
appears to work perfectly. When I try the following:
{\bf This closing line of a paragraph emphasized}
\begin{wraptable}{r}{0.8\textwidth}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}\hline\hline
table contents, which is all text and numbers
\end{tabular}
\label{exposure}
\end{wraptable}
{\bf This opening line of the next paragraph emphasized}
The table is printed overlying the surrounding text. If I remove the {\bf text} at the beginning and end of the surrounding paragraphs, it works correctly.

It really isn't possible to say anything definite without an example document but I would guess that TeX is just failing to break the text into the very small space left. Using
sloppypar
is an option, although if the table takes up 80% of the text width, setting it as a standard full widthtable
rather than awraptable
might be more appropriate.Note the first line overprints in the original version but doesn't in the second at teh expense of stretched white space.
