You can't keep them small if you embed them in a Word document. You can
insert them as a link to the original file but then need to keep the
original file in the same location and move it with the document if you send
elsewhere.

I have JPG pictures. According to MS Photo Editor (File, Properties), they
are 1.92 inches by 2.56 inches, in 24-Bit True Color at 300-pixel
resolution, and about 1.3 MB.

Using InsertPictureFrom File, the inserted picture balloons in the
Word
doc at 75% - 4.5 x 6 - of a 6 x 8 size.

Why the size change? How can I keep them small? What's the best way to
handle inserting photos?
