Inserting several pictures into MS Word at once without using Media Browser

In Microsoft Word 2011, we can either "insert picture from file" or "insert from photo (media) browser". For users who do not have pictures stored in iPhoto or Photobooth, we are forced to use "insert picture from file" method,
which only allows for one picture to be added at a time. How can I add more than one picture at a time?

It is not clear what alternative you are wanting besides those two options, but you might add a smart folder somewhere that filters by kind "image" which would let you insert image from file that is sort of like a photo browser.
Alternatively there is a very old tip (like 2008) in
this Mac OSX Hints thread that says you should be able to add folders to the media browser by dragging them from the finder into the media browser window. I have no idea if this still works.

How do I insert a photo into Microsoft Word from the new Photos app?

I have Word for Mac 2011 on my Macbook Pro with Retina and am now unable to simply go in and insert a picture into ANY Microsoft program since the update from iPhoto to Photos. I'm an archaeology grad student in the middle of multiple term projects that require countless Figures, almost all of which come from pics I took in the field that are all in Photos. These projects have to be submitted electronically, thus I cannot simply copy and paste everything into Pages (my professors all use PCs). I've found that I can insert an image into Pages and then copy and paste it to Word, but the quality is severely diminished.
Is there some way to change the settings on the Photos app to allow for image insertion? Or do I need to go in and somehow manually copy and re-save every photo into a separate folder outside of the Photos app?

Select a photo in Photos. Press COMMAND-C to copy. Go to your document location where you wish the pic to appear and press COMMAND-V.

How do I insert a picture into iMovie regardless of aspect ratio

When I insert a picture, i either have the choice of cropping the picture or having black bars on the sides. How can I insert a picture into imovie and not be dictated based on the aspect ratio. thanks

Must be one of the wonderful improvements introduced in iMovie 11.
nope, never.
look:
example #1: a 1:1 pic in a 16:9 screen
option A bars l/r
option B cat-off
example #2: a wiiiide screen pic in a 16:9 screen
option A bars t/b
option B catcut off
and you don't want kitty look like that:
(1:1 aspect ratio distorted to make fit onto a 16:9 screen)

Acrobat form field that allows Reader user to browse and insert a picture into a predefined area

Is there a way to do insert a form field into an AcroForm that allow Reader users to browse and insert a picture into that form field?
I know that LiveCycle can do this, but I need to do this using an AcroForm. Or maybe there's a third-party plug-in that can be used in an AcroForm to do this?

Jay,
The new version of Reader, which was announced today (see AcrobatUsers.com), will now allow you to use the field.buttonImportIcon method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.737.html
For a bit more information, see: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/743823
Here's the minimum code that can be used in the Mouse Up event of a button that's configured with a layout that's something other than "Label only":
// Mouse Up script for a button
event.target.buttonImportIcon();
Since this isn't backwards compatible with Reader, you'll probably want to add additional code to test what version is being used and alert the user if it's pre-11. You should also check the return value to see if anything went wrong. The hard part is getting everyone to upgrade, but this and a number of other features should make it worth it.

Insert editable picture into PDF form?

Good day,
I am creating editable marketing flyers for a client. I'm opening my PDF (originally created in Illustrator) in Acrobat and adding editable form feilds for the end user to add their contact information to each piece. The enduser also wants to add a photo with their contact info. Is there a way to create this as part of the form? Ultimately, I'm wanting them to be able to insert a picture into a specified area and not have to resize the photo. Is this possible in Acrobat professional?
Any information would be greatly appreciated! I'm working in CS3 and Acrobat 8, on a mac.
Cheers,
Lilly

This post has been invaluable for me! Thanks for everyone input. I have used the event.target.buttonImportIcon(); javascript to create PDF's the user can import, and it works great. However I now have on last challenge and I am hoping someone on this forum can help out with. Is there anyway (with a little javascript on the button) to have the image the user uploads flip upside down? I have a document that needs to be folded in half, and it would be perfect if I could have the user upload the image to both buttons, but have one button flip the image upside down. I know I could have the user do that image flipping and re-saving on their own, but I am trying to simplify things. Any ideas here would be helpful.
Thanks!

How do you insert a picture into another picture?

How do you insert a picture into another picture. For example, one person is missing from family photo & I'd like to insert that person's face.

By using an external editor:
In order of price here are some suggestions:
Seashore (free)
The Gimp (free)
Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
Acorn ($50 approx)
Pixelmator ($50 approx)
Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

Insert a Picture Into a Panel....

How can i insert a picture into a JPanel.
Actually I want to show the picture only to the left hand side of the
JFrame.
Kindly help me.
Thanx

I would suggest to use a JLabel instead of JPanel.
And then go ahead like described in the other tips.
The JLabel can then be placed whereever you want inside your frame.
Btw. if you just need something like a dialog - with a label to the left side, few buttons and some objects inside - I recommend to read the tutorials for JOptionPane - it is much easier to use this class instead of doing all the code on your own.

Is this with the Travel database or another database?
If it's another database then make sure your columns
allow nulls. To check this in the Server Navigator, expand
your DataSource down to the column.
Select the column and view the Is Nullable property
in the Property Sheet
If still no luck, check out a tutorial, like Performing Inserts, ...

Does anyone know how to get an application you had once without using App Store?

Does anyone know how to get an application you had once without using App Store?
Because I'm underage and I couldn't get it back.
I just want it back, I'm not going to use any money in App Store...

When you say you "had it once", how did you get it then? The App Store has only been around for a few years, so there are lots of apps out there that you would once get from the developer, but now they're only available on the App store. Which app(s) are you referring to?

I want to insert a picture into a body of text in a blog entry page.

This has me stumped. I did it once but cannot do it again.
How can I place a picture into a body of text? I have a print-out from the HELP menu but it is not clear. It talks of inline and fixed objects. I think I want a fixed object -- one that does not move along with the text as the text grows/moves along the page incrementally.
Because I am working with the photo on a blog entry page I cannot do the Choose Insert > Choose > Select the file, and click insert. I cannot because (1) The picture has to stay on the page in that Magic Frame, and (2) the choosing capability of the iWeb program does not enable someone to go inside the iWeb program and land on a certain page.
I am working on the blog page. Instead of a tiny little picture of a doll at the top of the page, I want to raise all of the text and put the little doll's head inside the text body.
I am so stumped. The instructions are not clear at all.

Well i did exactly what your trying to do...go to
http://www.mac-switch.com
and view the blog "power button shortcut"
Go to the section you want to add the photo
to...Click "insert" then "choose" and choose the file
you want to put in there.
Good luck
Rob.
Hi Rob......
You know, I went to that Power Button Shortcut blog and for the life of me, your point went flying over my brains -- I just did not get what point you were making to me. The Power Button thing was not what I was trying to do. I was trying to put a PICTURE of a doll's head inside a body of text. That means I had to get text wrap to kick in, and..........
But the bottomest line is, I finally did it. I don't know how I did it because I was in a state of just clicking around, trying to move text. It's a long story to duplicate, but I went through several steps and since it was just desperation moves I was doing, I don't have a set of notes to go by for the next time.
The hard part, or one of them, was to get the Text Inspector to make he Text Wrap workable. For a long time , no matter what I did, the Text Wrap option remained greyed out. It was maddening. Then for reasons that I cannot recreate in an orderly fashion, I got the Text Wrap option to get bolded out, and thus an option.
Thank you for trying. BTW, I think your pages look wonderful and very slick (which I think is the right look for what you want to do with your website).

Insert a Picture into the Picture/Image Content Control using Open XML SDK 2.0

I have created a word template as follows
Here PizzaPicture is a Picture Content Control, PizzaName is a Plain Text Content Control and PizzaDescription is a Rich Text Content Control
I am able to assign text to PizzaName and PizzaDescription Easily but not able to even locate the PizzaPicture. Here is my code
using (WordprocessingDocument document = WordprocessingDocument.Open(@".\test.docx", true)) {
MainDocumentPart mainPart = document.MainDocumentPart;
DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.Text text = null;
SdtContentBlock pizzaNameBlock = null;
SdtContentBlock pizzaDescriptionBlock = null;
//SdtContentBlock pizzaPictureBlock = null;
List<SdtBlock> sdtList = mainPart.Document.Descendants<SdtBlock>().ToList();
foreach (SdtBlock sdt in sdtList)
Console.WriteLine(sdt.SdtProperties.GetFirstChild<Tag>().Val.Value);
SdtBlock s1 = mainPart.Document.Body.Descendants<SdtBlock>().Where(r => r.SdtProperties.GetFirstChild<Tag>().Val == "PizzaName").Single();
SdtBlock s2 = mainPart.Document.Body.Descendants<SdtBlock>().Where(r => r.SdtProperties.GetFirstChild<Tag>().Val == "PizzaDescription").Single();
SdtBlock s3 = mainPart.Document.Body.Descendants<SdtBlock>().FirstOrDefault(r =>
SdtProperties p = r.Elements<SdtProperties>().FirstOrDefault();
if (p != null)
Console.WriteLine("P is not null");
// Is it a picture content control?
SdtContentPicture pict =
p.Elements<SdtContentPicture>().FirstOrDefault();
if (pict != null) Console.WriteLine("Pict is not null");
// Get the alias.
SdtAlias a = p.Elements<SdtAlias>().FirstOrDefault();
if (pict != null && a.Val == "PizzaPicture")
return true;
return false;
if (s3 == null) {
Console.Write(" s3 is Null");
} else {
Console.WriteLine("s3 not null");
if (s1 != null) {
pizzaNameBlock = s1.Descendants<SdtContentBlock>().FirstOrDefault();
text = pizzaNameBlock.Descendants<DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.Text>().FirstOrDefault();
// here you can set the current time
text.Text = "Peperoni";
Console.WriteLine(text.Text);
string embed = null;
if (s3 != null)
Drawing dr = s3.Descendants<Drawing>().FirstOrDefault();
if (dr != null)
Blip blip = dr.Descendants<Blip>().FirstOrDefault();
if (blip != null)
embed = blip.Embed;
if (embed != null)
IdPartPair idpp = document.MainDocumentPart.Parts
.Where(pa => pa.RelationshipId == embed).FirstOrDefault();
if (idpp != null)
ImagePart ip = (ImagePart)idpp.OpenXmlPart;
using (FileStream fileStream =
File.Open(@"c:\temp\pepperoni.jpg", FileMode.Open))
ip.FeedData(fileStream);
if (s2 != null) {
pizzaDescriptionBlock = s2.Descendants<SdtContentBlock>().FirstOrDefault();
string altChunkId = "AltChunkId12345";
AlternativeFormatImportPart chunk = mainPart.AddAlternativeFormatImportPart(AlternativeFormatImportPartType.Xhtml, altChunkId);
chunk.FeedData(File.Open(@".\html.txt", FileMode.Open));
AltChunk altChunk = new AltChunk();
altChunk.Id = altChunkId;
////Replace content control with altChunk information
OpenXmlElement parent = pizzaDescriptionBlock.Parent;
parent.InsertAfter(altChunk, pizzaDescriptionBlock);
pizzaDescriptionBlock.Remove();
mainPart.Document.Save();
document.Close();
Here the call mainPart.Document.Descendants<SdtBlock>().ToList(); returns me only 2 items PizzaName, PizzaDescription but
no PizzaPicture.
Secondly the line SdtContentPicture pict = p.Elements<SdtContentPicture>().FirstOrDefault();
returns NULL. So it seems that there is no element of type SdtContentPicture.
What am I doing wrong? I am pretty sure that I have put PizzaPicture as a Picture content control.
My objective is to locate this control in the document and then insert an image into it programmatically.
MSDNStudent Knows not much!

Hi,
I'm running some test on your code, and I'll come back as soon as I get some update. But before that, I would recommend you to bind customXMLPart with the content controls via Content Control Tool Kit,
which enables us to bind customXMLPart with CC by dragging and dropping.
After binding, you can change contents of the template via OpenXML SDK easily as the following code:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
string fileName = @"C:\CCTest.docx";
WordprocessingDocument wordDoc = WordprocessingDocument.Open(fileName, true);
MainDocumentPart mainPart = wordDoc.MainDocumentPart;
CustomXmlPart customPart = mainPart.CustomXmlParts.FirstOrDefault();
//convert image into string
string picName = @"C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\Desert.jpg";
System.IO.FileStream fileStream = System.IO.File.Open(picName, System.IO.FileMode.Open);
System.IO.BinaryReader br = new System.IO.BinaryReader(fileStream);
byte[] byteArea;
byteArea = br.ReadBytes(System.Convert.ToInt32(fileStream.Length));
string picString = System.Convert.ToBase64String(byteArea);
//Load the XML template
string DataString = Properties.Resources.XMLData;
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.LoadXml(DataString);
//change the value
XmlNodeList xmlNode = xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("pizzaPic");
xmlNode[0].InnerText = picString;
xmlNode = xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("pizzaName");
xmlNode[0].InnerText = "Pizza Name";
xmlNode = xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("pizzaDescription");
xmlNode[0].InnerText = "Pizza Description";
//write the custom xml data into the customxmlpart
System.Xml.XmlTextWriter writer = new System.Xml.XmlTextWriter(customPart.GetStream(System.IO.FileMode.Create), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
writer.WriteRaw(xmlDoc.InnerXml);
writer.Flush();
writer.Close();
fileStream.Close();
br.Close();
mainPart.Document.Save();
wordDoc.Close();
and the XML template of the project would something like:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Pizza xmlns="http://Test/ContentControls/Pizzas">
<pizzaPic></pizzaPic>
<pizzaName></pizzaName>
<pizzaDescription></pizzaDescription>
</Pizza>
I hope this helps.

How do i insert a picture into a table cell

I have this question too. It is very important for me to insert pictures into tables in order to complete my lab reports. This feature needs to be added; the software is useless without it. It is things like this that make me regret Apple purchases.

Inserting Photoshop photo into a Word document

Have you tried just dragging the photo out of PSA SE into the word doc?

Converting several pictures into one big picture.

Hi guys, I'm new here..
for the last hour I've been browsing the forums trying to find an answer to my question but unfortunately, I couldn't find any satisfying answer.. maybe it's because this whole forum system is pretty new to me, or maybe because I'm not that good at English so I'm not looking for the right key words..
anyway.. I'm using Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 for quit a while and I got one thing I can't sort out..
here we go..
let's say I have about 100 pictures, all of which are at the same resolution and pretty much same quality.. I want to make all these 100 pictures into 1 picture which will have all these pictures one under the other.. or maybe two pictures every row (two pictures under two pictures)..
I hope I explained myself good, cause that's the best I can do..
thanks a lot guys, hope you will be able to help me.

I'll start you out with something that is my interpretation of what you want. If I'm wrong, at least we'll have a starting point as you tell me why it won't do what you want. :)
Since you say you're using PSE 4.0, make sure your View is set to either Tile or Cascade, and get the Layer Palette open.
Create a new blank document (File>New>Blank File). In the set up box, select the size you want and set it to the same resolution as that of the pictures you want to put on it. Depending on what your goal is, you can choose it to have a transparent background, white background, or you can choose a color. Leave the new blank file open on your desktop.
Now open a couple of the image files you want to move. (DO NOT put them in that silly Photo Bin - have them open on your desktop!) Assuming you want the entire picture moved, do a Control>A or Select>All and get the marching ants around the entire image. Now do either a Copy/Paste to the new blank document or (my favorite), choose the Move Tool and simply drag and drop the selected image to the new canvas. You'll see that the new picture goes on the new document in a separate layer, and you can also use the Move Tool to shove it around and get it where you want it. Now you can close the image that's been moved and go on to the next. Repeat until you have all the images moved.
So... How far off am I?!
