Question
How do I resize pictures in Word?
Answer
An operation that goes hand-in-hand with cropping is resizing the images you import. This is one technique you'll use all the time—pictures rarely come into your documents at just the right size.
Resizing a picture in Word is similar to resizing any object. To begin, click the image. Handles appear around the edges of the object. If you want to enlarge the image, click in one corner of the picture and drag the handle outward. When the image is the size you want, release the mouse button.
If resizing your picture to a precise measurement is important, use the Shape Height and Shape Width commands next to the Crop command on the Format tab in the Size group.
