Adding images to a Word document

To add images to a Word document:

  1. Head to the 'Insert' tab of the ribbon.
  2. Locate the 'Pictures' drop down menu (located in the 'Illustrations' sub-category).
  3. Click on 'Pictures' and select the location of the image from the drop down menu:
    • 'This Device...' option allows you to select an image stored on your system
    • 'Mobile Device...' option allows you to select an image from your Android device using a QR code
    • 'Stock Images...' option allows you to select a stock image
    • 'Online Pictures...' option allows you to use the Bing search engine to insert an image from the web
  4. Once the image has been inserted into the Word document, you can resize it by clicking and dragging the circular tabs located on the corners of the image, and in the centre of the edges. You can also rotate the image by clicking and dragging the circular arrow icon at the top of the image.

 

Tip:  use the text wrap feature to organise text around your image.
