9-4 Inserting Pictures into Documents
Inserting Pictures with Windows 3.1
In Windows 3.1, Microsoft Word and other applications are
often unable to recognize the JPEG format that the camera
uses to capture your pictures. Convert your picture to a Tiff
or bitmap file in PhotoPC 500 as described on page 6-8 or
export your photo in the bitmap format as described on
page 4-11. Then, follow these steps to insert your converted
PhotoPC 500 pictures into documents using applications in
Windows 3.1:
1
Open the document in your application.
2
Select the area of your document where you want to
place the picture.
3
Select
Picture
from the Insert menu. (In some
applications you may need to select another command
such as
Import
, which you can usually find in the File
menu.)
The Insert Picture dialog box appears:
4
Find the file you want to insert. Most of your pictures
are probably in
C:\PHOTOPC5\PHOTOS
. If you
converted the file, look for the file in the directory
where you saved it. In some applications, such as
Microsoft Word, you see a preview of your picture.
NOTE
You can conduct a search for your file in many Windows
applications. See your application’s documentation for more
information on conducting a search.
