Importing Pictures

How can I import a picture from another file?
Until now I have opened the file and then ctrl + print screen and then pasted it to my slide. If I then want to make the picture bigger then the solution becomes slurred. Is there any other way to do it??

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Importing Pictures

Hi Elisabeth,

Thanks for your question.

Regarding to handling pictures in PowerPoint, the program has very limited graphics tools.

To import pictures, there are 2 ways:
1) INSERT menu -> Picture -> From File, then choose the image file
2) Locate & open the image file, copy & paste it into PowerPoint slide.

For capturing your screen:
1) ALT + Print Screen (not CTRL) captures the active screen
2) Print Screen captures the full desktop including any opened windows

See if these options are any help.

Regards,
