I write to seek your help with a problem I have in using word 2007 on my PC
with XP Pro. When I insert a picture into a document and wish to compress it,
I go to the ribbon- "format-adjust", but there is no option available there
to "compress pictures", only Brightness, Contrast and Recolor.

I understand that this option should be there; I thought this may require
some plug-in or download but I have not been able to find any source of
information on how to achieve this. Would you be able to kindly advise me on
this matter?

Many thanks

What is the format of the picture (file type)? And have you embedded the
picture or linked it?
