Graphics and Pictures Graphics are pictures and artwork. If it isn’t text, it is a graphic. Pictures are a particular type of graphic. Pictures can be scanned from old photos or negatives, or they can be taken with a digital camera.

Clip Art If you are not connected to the Internet, you will get a limited selection of Clip Art.

You can also access pictures, videos, and audio objects.
Resize Clip Art Right-clicking the image will also give you shortcut options to rotate (select Size and Position). To resize click on the sizing handles that are located on the perimeter of the graphic when it is selected.
