Nudge Rotate
Is there any way to nudge-rotate an inserted pic. Not nudge
up/down/left/right but nudge AROUND. Some of my scanned pics are 1-2 deg off level and the Word 2002 Free Rotate feature seems only to move them +/- 5 deg via mouse rotation control. I've got grid switched OFF, even tried grid set to the minimum - but no luck. Why don't I just re-scan them with the page turned 1 deg more? Good question, and I've tried that. The scan and OCR program (ScanSoftSE) has some bizarre auto straightening "feature" (read bug) which is setting them all 1-2 degrees off level no matter how I set the page on the platen. Grrr and ?!?!!?. Thanks in advance. |

Nudge Rotate
Open the scanned image in Photo Editor, click on Image | Rotate,
rotate by any degree increment you wish, save, and then insert the image into Word. Swami wrote: Is there any way to nudge-rotate an inserted pic. Not nudge up/down/left/right but nudge AROUND.

Nudge Rotate
If you open the Format Picture dialog, on the Size tab the rotation can be
adjusted in 1-degree increments. -- Suzanne S.

Nudge Rotate
Ah Thank you. Suzanne Well I never knew that was there....!
Although, a shame it doesn't do 0.5 degrees, as that would fine tune my pics even better! I figured out the rotate handle works in minimum 3 deg lots. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
