R ESIZING AN O BJECT  D ISCUSSION

If you want, you can resize an object or graphic image so that it fits better in a document. Drawing objects and graphic images can easily be resized using their sizing handles. If you drag a middle sizing handle on any side of an object, you change the size in that one direction only. If you drag any sizing handle at the corner of an object, however, you change the size in two directions at once.

NOTE The mouse pointer must be a double-headed arrow to size a graphic image or drawn object. You must be in Print Preview , Print Layout , or Web Layout view to see a drawing object.
