INSERTING A GRAPHIC
 
Overview: <Insert Picture command>
 
To insert a graphic:
1. Open the Word document where the graphic will
   be inserted.
2. In the Word document, move the cursor to where
   you want to insert the graphic.
3. Choose Insert Picture (Alt,I,P).
4. In the Picture File Name box, type the
   filename of the graphic file you want to
   import, or select the file in the Files list.
5. If Word can detect the file format, it
   displays it in the Format box.
   If the Format box is blank, select the
   appropriate format in the list box.
6. Select the appropriate alignment in the
   Align In Frame box.
7. Accept the preset width and height for the
   graphic or select dimensions in the Graphics
   Size box. You may type any dimensions you
   want, but Word suggests dimensions that keep
   the aspect ratio of the original graphic
   intact.
8. To add white space before and after the
   graphic, type measurements in the Space box.
9. Choose OK.
