Editing and Adjusting Images in Word

Body

Word includes a number of image adjustment tools you can use to bring out the best in your images. You'll find the whole set located in the Adjust group of the contextual Picture Tools. The Adjustment group is located on the far left. Depending on the type of change you want to make to your picture, click one of the following tools:

  • Remove Background: Automatically remove unwanted parts of the picture.
  • Corrections: The Corrections command allows you to change the sharpness and softness of an image, as well as its brightness and contrast.
    • Brightness: Changes the amount of light included in an image.
    • Contrast: Controls the way in which items in your picture are defined.
  • Color: The Color command allows you to change the color saturation, color tone, or even completely recolor an image.
    • Recolor: Enables you to apply a color wash to your picture that may give it an old-fashioned feel (like a sepia-toned image) or enable it to blend naturally with the color scheme in the Theme applied to your document.
  • Artistic Effects: Allows you to make your picture look more like a sketch or a painting
  • Transparency: Transparency allows what’s behind the image to be seen
  • Compress Picture: Reduces the file size of the image (not the actual size of the image in the document) so that when you save the file, it will be as compact as possible.
  • Change Picture: Change to another picture while preserving the formatting style of the current picture
  • Reset Picture: Reverses any modifications you’ve made to the original photo and returns it to its original size, shape and coloring.
