Insert menu Picture command From File is the command. Find the only graphics file thatis stored in the 021 folder of the J: drive. Insert it just below this paragraph for the first step of the graphics lab. You will need to pull down the Look In: list to change drives. You will need to double click on the 021 folder icon to open it up.The photo is very large. We will reduce it to about 50% of its original size. Single click on the photo so it has handles. How many handles does it have? The handles show you it is selected. Use the Format menu Picture command. In that dialog box, choose the Size tab. Change the Height or the Weight (in the Scale group) down to 50%. They should both change. Click OK when you are done.Click on the graphic image again (if it is not selected). Make the photo just a little bit smaller by pressing the mouse button down on the lower right hand corner handle and dragging it inward. When you let up the mouse, it is resized.Grab one of the side handles of the graphic. Drag it over to the right margin, so it is about 6 inches wide. Grab the bottom handle of the graphic and make it shorter. You have just taken the graphic to the house of mirrors at the amusement park.Restore the graphic to its undistorted version by undoing the last two commands. Do the Edit menu Undo command twice. (Ask the instructor to show you an even better method when you finish this task).With the graphic selected, the Picture toolbar should be showing. Click you right mouse button on any toolbar (the Standard and Formatting toolbars are probably showing too). How many toolbars does Microsoft Word have? How many of them are checked?Select the graphic again, if needed. Use the Edit menu Copy command to place it to the Clipboard and then Edit menu Paste it below this paragraph. Using one of the corner resizing handles, resize it to about ½ its size, so it is even smaller.Click on the new smaller image. The Picture toolbar should be showing. Find the Text Wrapping button (by pausing the mouse button over each button to see the tooltip message popup). Change the text wrapping from Top and Bottom (the default) to Tight. What change took place? Change the text wrapping to None. What change took place? Change the text wrapping back to Top and Bottom to see the original again. Then changeit to Tight again.Triple click in the preceeding paragraph (the one with the blue font) to select the entire paragraph. Using the Format menu Font command, change the font color to red instead.Using the Format menu Font command, change the letters sub in submarine to subscripted style. Change the letters sup in superman to superscripted style. Change the sub and sup in the words superscripted and subscripted too. Now, be sure the insertion point is somewhere in this paragraph you are reading (so it is the active or selectedparagraph). The Format menu Drop Cop command should be done. Choose the Drop Cap style of Dropped (instead of In Margin). Go back to the formerly blue paragraph thatyou made into red words. Add a drop cap to that paragraph too.Do the Window menu Split command. Size the split so that your top window is about twice as large as the bottom window. Scroll the top window until you are back to the firstpage of the document and your original graphic image. Try the four different choices that button two on the Picture toolbar gives you. With the Watermark choice, you could create a background for your letter or part of it. Expensive stationary often has a watermark. Which textwrapping would have to be used to have thetext be visible and on top of the graphic?Place a 1 point border around the graphic image. Try a 3 point border instead. Do you like having a border (sort of a frame) around the graphic image. The border button (or line button) is on the Picture toolbar.Increase the contrast about 10 times to see the effect.Decrease the contrast about 20 times to see the effect of that.Increase the brightness and then decrease it again to see the effects of those operations onthe graphic image.Edit menu Paste another copy of the graphic below this paragraph. You should then select the graphic (so it has handles) and crop it down to just a small portion of the original using the cropping tool.Edit menu Paste another copy of the graphic here and select it (8 handles) and then experiment with the different Text Wrappings that are available and also the Watermark and Black and White and Grayscale changes it can
