I have print screened my powerpoint image into word how do I crop it?

Question

As above.
Using MS Word 2007
Cheers

Answer 1

It is even easier in 2007 than in previous versions. When you click on the image, Picture Tools is added to the ribbon. Click on Format immediatley below it, then you will see the crop tool right side of ribon, click on that and then get your mouse on the cropping marks round the image and drag to crop. Cropping in PowerPoint would be exactly the same.

Answer 2

The PrintScreen function will give you an image of the entire screen, which you can then trim with the Image Crop tool in Word. Do a search for Crop in Word's help. PrintScreen is reliable, but it's not a great solution, however: the image is a bitmap at screen resolution, a likely to look poor unless you are going to scale it down uniformly to half size or less.



It seems that you can't group objects in Powerpoint. However, you can select all the objects that you want, and do a copy and paste in to Word. The trick is to do a "Paste Special" and not a normal Paste, and select "Picture" in the Paste Special dialog box. This will paste your selected objects in to Word as one big picture. The default is "MS Office Drawing Object", which keeps them as separate objects, which is why you need Paste Special.



Once they are in Word as a picture, they are still editable with Word's picture editor, which knows they are separate objects inside the picture.

Answer 3

Clik on the print screened image in word 07

then on the toolbar on the top, another 1 shuld pop up saying format (or smething like that on the end)

clik on that and from there choose the crop symbol and crop



I wuld suggest u chnge the text wrapping to tight, as it is easier to move around and rearrange.



Hope i helped

Answer 4

Save as a .jpeg. open in a photo program or in paint and crop it. Save it, now insert it into word. Note you can always re-size an inserted image by clicking and pushing/pulling on the corner.

Answer 5

Once you print your screen, paste it into Paint first. Then make any cropping changes necessary. Once you've finished, you can recopy the image and it will be the one you need for your word document.



Hope this helps,
