How do I insert or paste a picture?

You can add a picture from your computer, find a free one online, or paste one you copied from another program.

Add a picture from your computer

1. Go to the page where you want the picture.
2. Click the Insert tab.
3. Click Pictures.
4. Choose the picture file and open it. PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, WebP and SVG pictures all work.

The picture goes on the page at its own shape, sized to fit the page. Drag it where you want it, and drag a corner handle to resize it. You can also drag a picture file from your computer straight onto the page.

Find a free picture online

1. Click the Insert tab, then click Online Pictures.
2. Type what you’re looking for, like “cross” or “flowers”, and click Search.
3. To narrow it down, pick Photos, Illustrations or Clip art under Type.
4. Click the picture you want, then click Insert.

Only your search words are sent to the picture service. You’re responsible for respecting each picture’s license.

Paste a picture

1. Copy the picture in the other program.
2. Click the page in PubKeep and press Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on a Mac).

Swap a picture but keep its spot

1. Click the picture to select it, then click the Picture Format tab.
2. Click Change Picture, then choose one of these:
   • Change Picture picks a new file from your computer.
   • From Clipboard uses a picture you just copied.
   • Remove Picture takes the picture out but keeps its empty frame.

To swap in a free picture from the web, right-click the picture and choose Change Picture > Online Pictures.

If it still looks wrong

Online Pictures says I’m offline

Searching needs an internet connection. Connect and try again, or insert a picture saved on your computer instead.

Pasting didn’t add my picture

Some programs copy a picture in a form PubKeep can’t read. Save the picture to your computer first, then use Insert > Pictures.
