4. Click OK. 5. The Crop dialog box will appear with your card background image displayed inside it. Use the different buttons on the dialog box to increase, or decrease, the magnification of the image. Use your mouse pointer to resize, or move, the highlighting box until you are satisfied with the appearance of your picture. 6. Click OK. The card background will be placed on either the front or the back of your card design. To Crop the Card Background When you add a background image to the card design, it is placed in a dialog box that allows you to crop it to taste. Once in the Crop dialog box, you will notice that a highlighting box with eight sizing handles is placed directly over the center of the image. The size of this highlighting box will change depending on your selected page size (see “Selecting Page Sizes”). At this point, you can either capture the portion of the image ”as is,” or resize the highlighting box to capture some, or all, of the image. To Capture the Whole Image 1. Place your mouse pointer within the highlight box's cropping area. The pointer will change from a single arrow to a four-headed arrow. This allows you to move the cropping area across the newly acquired image. 2. Press and hold down your left mouse button, and drag (move) the cropping area to the desired location on the background image. Release the left mouse button when you are satisfied with the new location of the highlighting box. 3. Click OK. The card background will be placed on either the front, or the back, of your card design. To Capture a Portion of the Image 1. Place your mouse pointer directly over one of the highlighting box handles. The pointer will change from a single arrow to a two-headed arrow. This allows you to resize the cropping area. 2. Press and hold down your left mouse button, and drag (move) the handle toward the center of the cropping area. 3. When the cropping area is sized to your satisfaction, move the highlight box so that it covers the portion of the image that you want to capture. 4. Click OK. The card background will be placed on either the front, or the back, of your card design. 22
