Images

The editor allows you to insert an image into your document.

How to insert an image

Place your cursor on the provision where you would like to insert the image, then either:

  • Right-click menu in the Editor View “Insert image”

  • From the upper tool bar, select Insert > Insert image

The system will present the Insert Image dialogue box where you can upload a new image or select from images that you’ve already inserted elsewhere in the document.

To insert a new image click Upload, navigate to the folder where your image is saved, select it and click Open.

The image selected must be in either jpeg or tiff format.

To insert an existing image, select it from the File list.

You must add Alternate text for all images. This is text which describes the image to assist visually-impaired users.

You can optionally add an Image caption and adjust the Width, Height and Image alignment. The system will maintain the image aspect ratio.

The system will warn you when the image quality is less than the recommended resolution of 300 dpi which required for print publishing.

In the Editor, the image will be displayed at a relative size for convenience of viewing. The PDF version of the document will show the image’s true size.

Maximum image size

If your image exceeds the height of 228mm (or 235mm if it does not have an Image caption), it will not render in the PDF.

Please reduce the height to ensure it is visible in the PDF. See below for instructions for updating an image.

There is not a strict limit on image width, but images that are beyond 147mm wide will ‘spill’ over to the right of the page, which may cause issues later in the publication process.

Insert Image Dialogue

How to delete an image

To delete an image:

  • Click on the image in the Editor.

  • Select ‘img block’ from the breadcrumb and press delete or backspace (see screenshot below).

The image will be removed from the document without affecting the element it was inserted in.

The image will not be removed from list of images that are available in the ‘Insert Image’ modal, so it can be reinserted if required.

Click on Img block

How to update image information

Click on the edit button to the bottom right of the image.

 

Make changes to any of the fields in the “Manage Image Properties” dialogue box and click Update button.

The system will update the image in the document with the changes.
