Crop MS Word images if crop points are invisible beyond margins


This may be a rare problem, but not at all impossible. You placed this image in your document adjusting its position carefully, to find out that part of it must be cropped, a part that is invisible, because the image is large enough to disappear beyond the margins of your Word document.

How can you crop the image, since crop points are invisible and inaccessible?

Right click on your image to edit its properties (format picture). In the dialogue that appears go to the Picture tab or anywhere (according to your version of Word) you can find the “Crop” command. Then you need to experiment a while.

Start by removing e.g. 100 px from the side you need to shorten and keep removing until those crop points become visible. Then your mouse will let you finish the job.

Enjoy!
