Resize and crop images

The image editing tools let you resize an image proportionally, or you can adjust just the height or width. If you want to permanently remove detail from the edges of images then you can use the crop tool.

To resize images:

  1. On the Edit ribbon tab, in the Text/Images group, click the Edit button
  2. Click the image you want to resize
  3. Do one of the following:
    • To resize proportionally, grab and drag the corner of the image
    • To resize the height or width, grab the image at the mid-point between the corners and drag the image

To crop an image:

  1. On the Edit ribbon tab, in the Text/Images group, click the Edit button
  2. Double-click the image you want to crop
  3. On the Format context tab, in the Size group, click Crop
  4. To crop the image, grab the edge of it and drag towards the center of the image
