How to Add a Photo to a Document Using Microsoft Publisher

Microsoft Publisher is a desktop publishing software used for creating, designing, and publishing professional quality marketing documents. Publisher is easy to use because it works like the Microsoft Word software program. Many of the menus, toolbars, and shortcuts you are familiar with from Word are found in Microsoft Publisher. Publisher allows you to add content, like a photograph, to your document.

Instructions

1. After opening Microsoft Publisher, click "New-Blank Publication" from pull-down menu. Note that the default page orientation is set to "Portrait."

2. To change the orientation of your new document, click "File" from the pull-down menu, "Page Setup," and "Landscape."

3. 

   Insert the first picture by selecting "Insert" from pull-down menu, then "Picture." You can either open the "Clip Art" Gallery or insert your own graphic by clicking "From File" with your mouse.

4. Click twice to open the folder where the picture is located. After locating your picture, double click the picture. This will place the photo into the Publisher document.

5. Edit the size of your picture by placing cursor on small circles at each side of picture. Adjust as necessary to fit your publication.
