help with compressing pictures
|
Help me please ! I �m getting nuts !!!!!! I �ve prepared a new ws. and included a lot of pictures which I �ve tried to compress but in vain . That �s just driving me mad about it . i �m quite worthless with this new computer technology so if someone could help me with some tips on how to resize or compress a picture in a simple way that would be just awesome !
thanks a lot

Hi ikebana! Here �s what I do:
- I first save the image into a file (never copy and paste it directly into the worksheet). Then I do insert image and open it with Microsoft Picture Manager. I resize it, save it in the same file with another name, and i8nsert it in the worksheet.
- If that is not enough, copy and paste the resized image in the worksheet into Paint and save it with another name. It will be much smaller.
It always works for me and I use a lot of images. 
Let me know if you succeeded.
Hugs,
mena |

I agree with Mena �s method - first save the picture as a file, open it in paint and select image -> resize and reduce to say 50% or less depending on the how much you wish to reduce it, then "save as" a different file name so that you keep the original in it �s full quality. Finally just insert the new reduced size file into your worksheet. |
