a particular alignment (I'd recommend Top Left, to preserve the

4. At top, under "Layout," set Horizontal
Alignment (recommended: Left) and Vertical
Alignment (recommended: Top)

prevent your words from moving unnaturally up and down the page
as you enter more text into adjacent columns

what you want to use as a link (either text or image—if image,

like a world with a magnifying lens to search the WWW or
type/paste it in—be careful not to repeat http://)
or

with a paperclip (right next to the Insert picture icon), click
on that, and proceed as before

|
1. Start
Microsoft Image Composer

3. Make sure that the graphic you want to resize is
selected (i.e., you’ve clicked it with your mouse)
4. For resizing, use second shortcut
icon along left-hand column that looks like two boxes with
circling arrows. If you leave your cursor sitting over it long
enough, the word "Arrange" appears. You can also find
this feature through Tools > Arrange
5. At the bottom center of the Arrange toolbox, you’ll
see a section about Scale where you can specify Width and
Height. Make sure to use pixels and that the Keep
aspect ratio box is checked. Big pictures are pretty, but
keep in mind how long they may take to load
6. To save, move the
dotted lines against the edges of the image. Whatever
appears within the dotted lines will be saved
