Editing the Base Image

While working with a document, you may need to edit the base image
that underlies all annotations. When editing a base image, you can select,
crop, or flip a specific area. For example, to create a novel effect, you may
want to flip an imbedded graphic on its vertical or horizontal axis.

1. On the Image toolbar, choose either the Select or Lasso tool.

Use the Select tool for areas that fit easily inside a square or
rectangle.

Use the Lasso tool for irregularly shaped areas.

2. Drag the cursor to draw the appropriately shaped container for the

area you want to select.

Cropping a document

You can crop a document to any size that you select.

1. Select the area of the document to which you want the entire

document to conform.

2. Choose Crop Inplace from the Edit menu or File toolbar.

Flipping a Document or Selected Area

Flipping a document may be useful; for example, if you want to create a
mirror image of a graphic.

To flip the entire cover page, select Flip from the Edit menu, then choose
Horizontal or Vertical.

To flip a selected area of a cover page, select the area and then select Flip
from the Edit menu; now choose Horizontal or Vertical.
