Tutorial
Import a Photograph

For the front page of the bulletin in this tutorial, you'll place a photograph that was scanned from a slide and saved as a black-and-white image.

  1. Select the cropping tool in the Tools palette and click inside the picture block. The picture block fills with grey to indicate that its contents are selected.

  2. Choose Import Graphic from the File menu. A dialog box appears with a list of the graphics documents in the Tutorial Folder. The document that contains the photograph for the front page is named Kachina.

  3. Click Kachina to select It and click Open. Or just double-click its name. The dialog box disappears and, after a moment, a photograph of a kachina appears in the picture block.

  4. Press Command-4 to switch to Actual Size view. Command-4 is the Command-key equivalent to the Actual Size command.

  5. Scroll the page in the window until the bottom-right corner of the page is in view, including the bottom-right edge of the picture block and the crop marks.
