Inserting an image into a Microsoft Word Document
When inserting an image into a Microsoft Word Document, make sure that the image is not larger than 1 page, which is 540 pixels wide by 720 pixels tall. You may need to resize the image in an image editing program like Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Fireworks, or GraphicConverter to shrink a large image. If you don't resize large images, the Word document into which you insert the image will become very large if you insert multiple images.
