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 Word.
- While I'm a big fan of sizing images…in advance using software,…there are times that you're going to want to resize…once you put an image into your document.…Microsoft Word provides several tools to make this easier.…Sizing an image inside of Word is very straightforward.…You'll notice the ability to click on the image,…and if you double-click,…the image will be selected with the Format tab.…Now, in this case, one of the first things…you're going to see is the ability…to actually adjust the size using numbers.…
So, for example, if I wanted this picture…to be four inches wide…and I press Return, it transforms.…Now, in this case, the two numbers adjusted together.…Let's go ahead and expand this here for advanced options.…You'll notice that the aspect ratio as been locked.…This means that, by default, if we leave that checked,…adjusting one number adjusts the other.…So if I type in an absolute height of three inches,…you'll notice that the width adjusts as well.…
Additionally, you could enter numeric values…down here if needed.…
