INSERTING CLIP ART IN A

FILE
▪ Adding clip art to your document can be
a great way to illustrate important
information or add decorative accents to
existing text. You can insert images from
your computer or search Microsoft's
extensive selection of clip art to find the
image you need. Once an image has
been inserted, you can format text
to wrap around the image.
To locate clip
art:
1. Select
the Insert tab.
2. Click the Clip
Art command in
the Illustrations
group.
3. The clip art options appear
in the task pane to the right
of the document.
4. Enter keywords in
the Search for: field that are
related to the image you
want to insert.
5. Click the drop-down arrow
in the Results should be: field.
6. Deselect any types of
media you do not want to
see.
7. If you also want to
search for clip art on
Office.com, place a
check mark next
to Include Office.com
content. Otherwise, it
will just search for clip
art on your computer.
8. Click Go.
To insert clip art:
1.Review the results from a
clip art search.
2.Place your insertion
point in the document
where you want to insert
the clip art.
3.Click an image in
the Clip Art pane. It will
appear in the document.
▪ You can also click
the drop-down
arrow next to the
image in the Clip
Art pane to view
more options.
To insert a picture from a
file:
1.Place your insertion
point where you want the
image to appear.
2.Select the Insert tab.
3.Click
the Picture command in
the Illustrations group.
The Insert Picture dialog
box appears.
4. Select the desired image
file, then click Insert to add it
to your document.
To resize an image, click and
drag one of the corner sizing
handles. The image will
change size while keeping
the same proportions. If you
want to stretch it horizontally
or vertically, you can use
the side sizing handles.
Changing text wrapping settings
When you insert clip art or a picture from a file,
you may notice that it's difficult to move it
exactly where you want. This is because
the text wrapping for the image is set to In
Line with Text. You'll need to change the text
wrapping setting if you want to move the
image freely, or if you just want the text to wrap
around the image in a more natural way.
To wrap text around an image:
1.Select the image.
The Format tab will appear.
2.Click the Format tab.
3.Click the Wrap Text command
in the Arrange group.
4.Select the desired menu option.
The text will adjust based on the
option you have selected.
5. Move the image around to see how the text
wraps for each setting.

If you can’t get your text to wrap the way you


want, click the Wrap Text command, then
select More Layout Options from the menu.
You can make more precise changes in the
Advanced Layout dialog box that appears.
To use a predefined text
wrapping setting:
1.Click
the Position command to
the left of the Wrap
Text command. A drop-
down menu will appear.
2.From the drop-down
menu, select the desired
image position.
3. The image will move
to the position you
have selected, and it
will automatically
have text wrapping
applied to it.
