Ch 2: Working with Images
Digital Image
Four Ways to Insert an Image
| Method | How it works |
|---|---|
| Insert Image dialog | Insert > Image > select file > Open. |
| Drag and Drop | Drag the image from a file browser into the document. |
| Copy and Paste | Copy (Ctrl+C) from source, paste (Ctrl+V) in target. |
| Linking | Tick the Link box — stores only a reference. |
Modifying an Image (Image Toolbar)
- Image Filter — 11 filters to improve the image.
- Crop — cuts off the unwanted part.
- Flip / Rotate — flip 180° or rotate by any angle.
- Transparency & Colour — adjust transparency, RGB, brightness, contrast, gamma.
Drawing Objects & Grouping
Enable via View > Toolbars > Drawing to make flowcharts, callouts and diagrams. Grouping combines several shapes into one object so a change on one applies to all (Group, Ungroup, Enter Group, Exit Group).
Positioning an Image — Four Settings
| Setting | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Arrangement | Position relative to other objects (Bring to Front, Send to Back...). |
| Anchoring | Reference point — Page, Paragraph, Character or Frame. |
| Alignment | 3 horizontal + 3 vertical = 6 styles. |
| Text Wrapping | Wrap off, Page Wrap, Optimal, Wrap left/right/through. |
Summary
- Digital image = pixels; insert by dialog, drag-drop, copy-paste or linking.
- Linking saves space; embedding stores a copy.
- Positioning = Arrangement, Anchoring, Alignment, Text Wrapping.
Quick check: 3 MCQs (tap an option)
Q1. Linking an image instead of embedding it makes the document file:
Linking stores only a reference to the image.
Q2. Cutting off an unwanted part of an image is called:
Resizing changes size; cropping cuts a part.
Q3. Combining several drawing shapes into one object is:
Grouped shapes move and change together.

Image डालने के चार तरीके
| तरीका | कैसे |
|---|---|
| Insert Image dialog | Insert > Image > file चुनें > Open। |
| Drag and Drop | File browser से image को document में drag करें। |
| Copy and Paste | Ctrl+C से copy, Ctrl+V से paste। |
| Linking | Link box tick करें — सिर्फ़ reference store होता है। |
Image Modify करना (Image Toolbar)
- Image Filter — image सुधारने के 11 filters।
- Crop — अनचाहा भाग काटता है।
- Flip / Rotate — 180° flip या किसी भी angle पर घुमाएं।
- Transparency & Colour — transparency, RGB, brightness, contrast।
Drawing Objects & Grouping
View > Toolbars > Drawing से flowcharts, callouts, diagrams बनाएं। Grouping कई shapes को एक object बना देता है ताकि एक बदलाव सब पर लगे।
Image की Positioning — चार Settings
| Setting | अर्थ |
|---|---|
| Arrangement | दूसरे objects के सापेक्ष position (Bring to Front, Send to Back...)। |
| Anchoring | Reference point — Page, Paragraph, Character या Frame। |
| Alignment | 3 horizontal + 3 vertical = 6 styles। |
| Text Wrapping | Wrap off, Page Wrap, Optimal, Wrap left/right/through। |
सारांश
- Digital image = pixels; dialog, drag-drop, copy-paste या linking से डालें।
- Linking जगह बचाता है; embedding copy रखता है।
- Positioning = Arrangement, Anchoring, Alignment, Text Wrapping।
झटपट जाँच: 3 MCQs (option पर tap करें)
Q1. Image को embed की जगह link करने से document file:
Linking सिर्फ़ image का reference रखती है।
Q2. Image का अनचाहा हिस्सा काटना कहलाता है:
Resizing size बदलता है; cropping हिस्सा काटता है।
Q3. कई drawing shapes को एक object बनाना कहलाता है:
Group की गई shapes एक साथ खिसकती और बदलती हैं।
Frequently Asked Questions
How is linking of an image different from embedding?
Embedding saves a copy of the image inside the document (bigger file), while linking stores only a reference (smaller file), preferred when the same image is used many times.
How is resizing different from cropping?
Resizing changes the overall size of the image, while cropping cuts off an unwanted part of it.
