1. How is linking an image different from embedding?
If multiple copies of the same image are required to be inserted in the document, it is
beneficial to save the link of the image instead of inserting the image. Inserting a link,
stores its reference instead of the image itself, thereby reduces the size of the document,
While embedding an image will increase the size of the document which will
be difficult to transfer digitally.
Keyboard shortcut to link an image – drag and drop the image while holding
the Ctrl+Shift keys.
2. Write factors controlling positioning of an image in a document.
Ans. Positioning of an image is controlled by four settings.
(i) Arrangement
(ii) Anchoring
(iii) Alignment
(iv) Text Wrapping
3. What are the benefits and drawbacks of grouping drawing objects?
Benefit: Writer allows grouping these different shapes, to behave as a single entity
without affecting their size and position. Once grouped, all shapes belonging to
that group becomes its member and a change applied on one member works on all. It
helps to do work faster.
Drawback: can’t edit the objects individually. We will Have to ungroup every time to do so.
4. How many options are there under the ‘Group’ option?
There are four options under the Group option. These are Group, Ungroup, Enter Group,
Exit Group.
5. When can we change the properties of an object?
Properties of the object can be modified or edited, either at the time of its creation, i.e.
before you start drawing them or after its creation. When properties are modified before
creation, it is known as setting default value(s).
6. What is the difference between resizing an image and cropping an image?
Resizing is the process of reducing or enlarging the size of the image.
Cropping the image means cutting the image to fit it in an available space or to
remove the unwanted area.
7. What is a digital picture?
A digital picture is a digital image, which is a representation of an image in a finite set of
digital values 0 or 1, known as pixels. These are stored in various types of graphics files
with the file extension, such as GIF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, BMP, etc.
Note:
a. Drag and Drop method cannot be used to create a Page style.
b. Paragraph style also includes Character styling attributes.
