Scanning a document
3 Answers
If I scan a document, how can I get that text/picture into the text box of an e-mail (Microsoft Outlook) as opposed to attaching it as an attachment.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.

When you select Create Mail you get a New Message window.
On the Format menu make sure Rich Text (HTML) is selected not Plain Text.
Then move the cursor to where you want the picture to go and select the Insert menu and the Picture option.
Browse for the picture and select OK and the picture should be added to your e-mail.
With Plain Text selected you cannot add a picture to the e-mail, you can only write "plain text" as it says.
Note if the person who gets the e-mail has Plain Text selected they will get the picture as an attachment.

Vehelpfulguy, tks it works, except the picture is much bigger than that which has been scanned. When I press the Insert tab, I get a box which asks Picture Source - that's OK, that's where I have saved it, but the other requests dont seem to mention anything about size, etc. 1. Alternate Text, 2. Layout = Alignment with several options and Border Thickness. 3. Spacing = Horizontal, Vertical. Do I need to put anything in these boxes? Can you throw any light on this please?
Tks.
