= SUMMARY =

After you paste a graphic into Microsoft Word for the Macintosh from the Clipboard, you cannot resize the graphic frame proportionally without also resizing the graphic. Similarly, the graphic frame must be resized if you resize a graphic.

Beginning with Word version 5.0, you can use the picture command to create white space to the top or the left of the graphic by moving the graphic to the right or bottom of the picture window.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Word can adjust the bottom and right sides of the frame without affecting the size of the graphic, but not the top and left sides.

To proportionally resize the graphic and its frame, hold down the SHIFT key while you drag one of the graphic handles.
