Default How to span/split a tall picture to multiple pages

See OP's first sentence.

I downloaded both Irfan and GIMP (because they were there), on the
offchance that I might someday need a graphics program. How good are
they?

Then the document will bloat (three images and not one). The only sensible
solution is to split it in an image editor - such as the free IrfanView.

How about inserting the image into the file three times, masking first
the bottom 2/3, then the top and bottom 1/3s, then the top 2/3?

Objects in Word cannot span pages, so what you ask is impossible.

Hello,


As in title - I am trying to span an image to multiple pages without
having to manually cut it using an image editor.


For example, a picture that is 3 pages height and 1 page width - it
should split into 3 pages nicely rather than one page containing the
partial image.
I would prefer not to split the picture, but store it as one whole
image in the word document, with the images continuing into the next
page if too tall to fit in one page.-
