How to Edit a JPEG in Word 2007

1. Insert a JPEG picture into your document. Do this by clicking the 'Insert' tab and 'Picture' to open the 'Insert Picture' window. Select a JPEG file. Click the 'Insert' button and the picture should appear in your document as a selected object. The tools ribbon should change to 'Picture Tools' under the 'Format' tab.
2. Change the brightness, contrast and color of your JPEG in the 'Adjust' section by clicking an option in the 'Brightness,' 'Contrast,' or 'Re-color' drop-down menus. Use the buttons in the second column to compress the picture file size, change to a different picture or reset the picture to its original size if you resized it.
3. Add shapes, borders and effects using tools in the 'Picture Styles' section. Select pre-formatted style options by clicking on an icon in the first column. Select individual options by using the 'Picture Shape,' 'Picture Border' and 'Picture Effects' drop-down menu buttons in the second column. For example, create a 'Glow' effect that makes the picture appear lifted off the page with a light source behind it---casting a glow around its edges. Click 'Picture Effects' > 'Glow,' then choose a glow color from the drop-down list.
4. Arrange your JPEG on the document and/or with other objects/text in the 'Arrange' section. Automatically position the JPEG on the document with the 'Position' tool. Select 'Bring to Front' or 'Send to Back' to layer objects or 'Text Wrapping' to reposition text. Use the buttons in the last column to align your JPEG edge-to-edge with other objects, group objects, or rotate it rotate your JPEG.
5. Trim or alter the size of your JPEG in the 'Size' section. Trim the picture with the 'Crop' button. Change picture height and width requirements in the 'Shape Height' and 'Shape Width' areas. If you want to key-enter size, scale, crop, or rotational values in a single window, click the icon (right-pointing diagonal arrow) at the right corner of the 'Size' section to open the 'Size' window.
6. Save your edited JPEG as part of the document or as a separate object.
