There are many different ways that you can use to modify the properties of a digital image. Microsoft Word has great options that can let you do advanced adjustments to your digital images. In this video, author Richard Harrington walks you through how to adjust the size of a digital image in Microsoft PowerPoint.
Once you've added a photo to a slide,…it may become necessary to adjust its size.…Maybe you're trying to integrate it…with some type on the page…or you might find that you have additional options…to change how large the image presents.…Maybe you want to focus on only part of the image…or put several images onto a slide.…Let's take a look at how we can resize…and we'll also have a quick refresher on cropping.…There are many ways to adjust the size of an image.…To start, make sure the image is active…and then go to the Format controls.…
In this case, you'll see the size…measured in height and width.…Now, this particular image…is actually wider than the slide.…You might notice it there.…If you grab a corner, it will scale proportionally…and this may make it easy for you…to snap the image into place.…Now, if you can't see outside of the slide,…just pinch to zoom or you can use…your Zoom slider in the lower right corner.…This may make it easier to see what's happening…as you try to position things.…
In this case, the image is bigger than the slide…
