Inserting a Picture
Office makes it possible for you to insert pictures, graphics, scanned photographs, art, photos, or artwork from a CD, DVD, online source, iPhoto library or other program into a document. You can insert pictures from files or insert photos from your iPhoto library. When you insert pictures from files on your hard disk drive, scanner, digital camera, or Web camera, Office allows you to select multiple pictures, view thumbnails of them, and insert them all at once, which speeds up the process. If you want to insert photos from an iPhoto library, you can access them using the Photos tab under the Object Palette tab on the Toolbox. After you select the picture or photo you want, you can insert it.

Do either of the following to start the Clip Gallery:
- In Word and Excel, click the Insert menu, point to Picture, and then click From File.
- In PowerPoint, click the Insert menu, and then click Picture.
Navigate to the location on the drive and folder that contain the file you want to insert.

- To link a picture file, select the Link to File check box.
