In Word, every day, all over the world, huge amount text documents. For some, this is a work report, a thesis, an essay, course work. And every second user is faced with adding pictures to a document. Although many, to the best of their ability or ignorance, omit at the moment. After all, it only seems that inserting a picture takes long time. And if you suddenly need to do mirror image pictures, then the older generation will probably ask a friend or loved one for help, or maybe skip this step altogether, citing lack of time. Let's figure out the problem that has arisen together.
Reflection of the image "mirror"
You can mirror your drawing using the following steps. Initially, insert the image into the Word document:
To display an image you need:
Horizontal reflection of the picture
There are situations when it is necessary to change the direction of the drawing. In this case, it is necessary to change the direction of Santa Claus to the left. To flip the image horizontally you need to do the following:
Note. If you need to place two pictures next to the original result as in the screenshot above, you need to copy the picture and then set the desired reflection.
Setting to Mirror a Pattern
To achieve the desired effect when reflecting a photo, you can adjust all the parameters manually. Click on the photo and go to the “Format” tab.
In the “Picture Format” window, set the desired type of “Blanks”, for example “Medium... touch”.
Note. You can mirror a photo with a shift of several points from the original picture; to do this, you need to select the “Reflection at 4 pt or 8 pt” option.
Any shift can be observed even when open active window"Drawing Format". To do this, move the parameters window to the left or right of the image that is located on the Word document sheet.
Working with documents in text editor MS Word, not only may there be a need to properly edit and format text in Word. There may be various pictures in the document. It's good if they can be left unchanged. But what if you need to save one on your computer so that you can edit it, or rotate it to a certain angle?
You can read the article on how to save a picture from Word to your computer by following the link. Now let's figure out how to turn the drawing over. To do this, you can select an arbitrary angle, set a specific value, or display it along the horizontal or vertical axis.
Rotate a picture
If you do not have any restrictions, and you can make a rotation as you like, the main thing is that it looks beautiful in the text, then select the picture by clicking on it with the mouse. Markers will appear along its edges, and a green dot will appear at the top. This example Suitable for those who have Word 2010 and 2013 installed.
Left-click on the green dot - the mouse pointer will change to a circular arrow. Rotate the image as you wish by moving the mouse. During this, on a faded sketch you can see how it will look rotated.
Then release the left mouse button and you're done.
If you have Word 2016 installed, then, after selecting the image, a circular arrow will immediately appear at the top. Click on it and, without releasing the left mouse button, rotate it to the desired angle.
Rotate the image mirror or 90 degrees
If you need to turn exactly 90 degrees, then achieving such accuracy using the first method will not be easy. Therefore, select the picture and go to the tab at the top "Working with drawings"– “Format”. In the “Arrange” group, click on the “Rotate” button - triangles are drawn on it. Next, select the desired item from the list that opens and click on it.
Here, in addition to the 90 degree angle, you can flip the image as a mirror, or reflect it along the horizontal axis.
In MS Word 2016 everything is done exactly the same. Only the group in which the “Rotate” button is located is called “Arrangement”.
Rotate the drawing by a certain angle
To do this, select it and go to the tab "Working with drawings"– “Format”, click on the “Rotate” button and select the item from the list "Other rotation options".
The "Markup" window will open. In it, in the “Rotation” section, in the appropriate field, enter any value from 0 to 360, that is, select an angle. Then click "OK" and the drawing will be rotated.
In Word 2016, this window opens in the same way, only it is called “Layout”.
Rotate images and format your documents according to the rules, or simply make Word documents with pictures and text interesting to look at.

Rate this article:It seems like a simple task, there is a picture, but it appearance you are a little unsatisfied. Let's say you need to send it for printing, but during printing it comes out of the printer at a slight angle, that is, not exactly relative to the axes of the sheet. As a result, everything looks crooked and at odds, but you want it to look normal - even.
So, we’ll talk about how to rotate a picture a few degrees in our article. First, we will analyze the programs that are most often used by ordinary users, these are Paint, Microsoft office picture manager, and then we’ll also mention about specialized program for editing pictures about Photoshop (Photoshop)
How to rotate an image 90, 180, several degrees in Paint
So let's start with Paint, everyone has this program by default, which means it can be used first. The only thing we need to tell you right away is that you won’t be able to rotate the image by a few degrees using Paint. But it has a diagonal transformation function, that is, if you need to rotate the picture by 1-2 degrees, then such a transformation, although it will distort the picture, may well work instead of the rotation function. And now, to make it clearer what we are talking about, we will tell you about everything in detail and in more detail.
1. If you need to edit only part of the picture, then use the “Select” icon, with which you select the fragment of the picture that needs to be edited. If you need to rotate the entire picture, then go straight to step 2.
2. Click on the “Rotate” icon and rotate the image 90 or 180 degrees
You can also call up this menu by clicking on the picture field with the left mouse button, the same thing will appear.
The second option is to distort it a little, transform the picture along the diagonals. Also in this case, the image can be scaled. Select the "Resize" icon or press the key combination Ctrl+W. As a result, such a frame appears.
All that remains is to select the scale or tilt and accept by clicking the "Ok" button. Everything is ready! These are the main ways to edit a picture by rotation, which are available in Paint. Now let's look at our alternatives further.
How to rotate a picture by 90, 180, several degrees in Microsoft office picture manager
If you have the program installed and Microsoft Office, namely Microsoft office picture manager, then this is already a full-fledged option for rotating pictures by several degrees. You can do it like this. Open the picture in this program and click the icon shown in picture 1. Using this option, you can rotate it by 90 degrees and, accordingly, a multiple of this value.
If you need to rotate it a few degrees, then select the “Drawing” icon, then “Rotate and Flip”...
A menu appears on the right. Here you will need to set how many degrees you want to rotate the image.
Everything is ready! The next option is for those who have quite professional program image editing - Photoshop (photoshop), but who is still mastering it.
How to rotate a picture by 90, 180, several degrees in Photoshop
The easiest way to turn would be like this. Select the “Rectangular Area Tool”, see number 1. Select the area to be edited.
Go to the “Editing” menu at the top => Arbitrary transformation.
Next, take the edge of the picture and rotate it. That is, with the left mouse button we move to the edge of the picture and rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise. This is how the picture will change. The inclination angle will be shown at the top.
Also, the “Arbitrary Transformation” item can be called up by clicking on the picture, after selecting it using the “Rectangular Area Tool”, with the left mouse button.
To sum it up...
First, all the pictures you see above can be enlarged by clicking on them. So everything can be viewed in more good quality, which means it’s better to understand what and where... Second, only starting with the use of Microsoft Office and more programs high level, you can fully rotate the image by a few degrees. Paint doesn't really give the user this ability, but refraction can be used to edit variations slightly.
Date: February 27, 2018 Category:Hello friends! In the last article we learned from our own hard drive, from the Internet, as well as a copy of the screen. But this is not enough if you want to create a high-quality project. Fortunately, the developers have come up with many tools for working with images for us!
Today we understand them and try to apply them.
When there is a picture on the sheet, click on it to highlight it. The Format tab will appear on the ribbon, which contains most of the settings for images in Word. And these are the opportunities it provides us.
Changing and correcting images in Word
Removing the background of a picture
What I didn’t expect from Word was the ability to remove the background. Of course, this is not Photoshop, but still, it works well. So, to remove the background of the picture, click Format – Change – Remove background.
An editing window will open where the program will offer its preliminary version of the image without a background.
The part that Word considered the background will be filled with color. You can control the result, for which buttons will appear on the ribbon:
- Mark areas for saving(+ sign) – select this tool and click in those places that do not need to be deleted
- Mark areas for removal(sign “-”) – with this tool, on the contrary, click on areas to delete
- Remove mark– deletes your save or delete marker
- Cancel all changes– cancels all actions and exits normal mode work
- Save changes– applies all changes and removes the background
This is what I ended up with. Of course, not ideal, but it works great when the main pattern is smooth enough.
Artistic correction of drawings in Word
If the picture is not sharp, bright or contrasting enough, use automatic adjustment. Click on the Corrections ribbon and select one of the suggested correction options.
If none of them suits you, configure them manually. Below the gallery, click Picture correction options and in the additional menu make fine adjustments. I won’t give any recommendations on what indicators to set, look at your image and experiment, achieve the best result, in your opinion.
Picture color settings
This is one of the most creative tools in the program. With its help, you can adjust the saturation and shades of colors, or completely recolor the image.
As often happens, Excel will offer you a gallery of ready-made results, but will give you the opportunity to customize it manually in the menu list:
- Other options– allows you to choose almost any color for repainting
- Install transparent color . A special pen appears on the screen, with which you can select a color in your drawing. The selected color will become transparent
- Picture color options– a menu opens with flexible settings for all the above parameters. Here you can achieve exactly the result you had in mind.
Color correction of images can make your document more attractive and effective, and also eliminates the need to use other image enhancement programs. For example, Photoshop.
Artistic Effects in Word
Artistic effects provide interesting results. To stylize the picture, click on the ribbon Format – Change – Artistic Effects. You can choose one of the effects in the gallery.
Compressing a picture
In large documents, every megabyte counts. If your document consists of hundreds of pages, it has a lot of images - it takes up a lot disk space. It's difficult to send email and publish it online.
To correct this situation, you can use image compression. To do this, click on the ribbon Format – Change – Compress Pictures. In the window that opens, select the image resolution and compression options, following the program prompts.
Replacing a pattern
If it turns out that the inserted picture does not fit, replace it. To do this, click Format – Change – Change picture. A standard window for inserting a picture will open. Make your choice for replacement.
Reset pattern settings
To cancel all the settings that you made with the image in Word, click on the ribbon, click Format – Change – Restore picture.
Styling images in Word
Image styles are needed for quick setup display. With their help, you can fit pictures more harmoniously into the space of the sheet.
Style gallery
Find the style gallery on the ribbon in the block Format - Picture Styles. Click the Down arrow to expand all styles on the screen. Select the appropriate one and click on its thumbnail. In most cases, this action is enough to set a good style.
Setting the picture border
By default, all images are inserted without a frame. This can be fixed using a button on the ribbon: Format – Picture Styles – Picture Border
Click on the button to see the available settings:
- Theme colors– choose a frame color from the standard ones for your theme
- Standard colors– frame color from the list of the most popular
- Other outline colors– Choose a color from Word’s wide palette
- Thickness– select the thickness of the frame line
- Strokes– select the method for drawing the frame. For example, solid line, dots, dotted line, dash-dotted line, etc.
- If you press Other lines, a side menu will appear in which you can fine-tune the frames
Selecting Effects
Clicking on the ribbon Format – Picture Styles – Picture Effects, you can apply individual preset settings to the image:
- Blank– make the image a three-dimensional figure with the effects from the following paragraphs
- Shadow– add various shadow effects
- Reflection– styling with reflections
- Backlight– highlights the picture with the selected color
- Smoothing– blurs the outline of the image
- Relief– adds volume to the picture
- Rotate a volumetric figure– rotates the image around different axes
Drawing layout
This tool turns an image into a diagram element. The best way to illustrate how it works is:
Arranging an image on a sheet
This block of commands is needed in order to correctly position the image on the sheet. It consists of several blocks, which we will consider sequentially.
Position of the drawing on the sheet
To change the position of an object on a sheet, find the command on the ribbon Format – Arrangement – Position. Choose from the options provided.
Wrapping text around a picture
This parameter specifies whether text wraps around the image, and if so, how. The wrapping method can be selected on the ribbon: Format – Arrangement – Text Wrap.
Commands for the relative position of images
When there are several images on a sheet, they are ordered, among other things, relative to each other. At the same time, some overlap with others, since they were later added to the document. Objects overlap each other when overlapping, but these processes can be controlled using the following tools:
Rotate and flip images
To rotate an image, you can rotate it using the rotation handle. I talked about this in the previous article about inserting images. But there is in Excel and special tools. Click on the ribbon Format – Arrange – Rotate Objects.
Select from the suggested rotation options, or click Other rotation options to make flexible rotation adjustments.
Crop an image in Word
Cropping an image in Word is done in the same way as in most applications running on Microsoft Windows.
Click Format – Size – Crop, a frame with markers will appear around the image. Drag these handles to select the crop area.
To set additional cropping options, click on the down arrow below the Crop button.
Resizing a picture
You can change the size of the picture by stretching it using the markers on the frame. In this case, the proportions of the image may be disrupted. However, you can do it differently. Find the Format – Size block on the ribbon. There, in the Shape Height and Shape Width fields, specify the exact dimensions of your object. At the same time, the proportions of the picture will be preserved.
That's all for today about working with images. Thank you for reading this long text to the end. I think it was useful for you, and you can proceed to more complex ones with a clear conscience Word objects. Therefore, the next post will be about.. See you!
