You can add an image to a PDF with the Image Annotation command. After you insert a new image, you can adjust its size and position, change the appearance and other settings, etc.

To add an image, do the following:

  1. Choose Edit > Image Annotation.
  2. Drag a rectangle on the page to define the canvas area for the image.
  3. In the Add Image dialog box, click the Browse button to select the image that you want to insert and click the Open button. You will see the URL of this image has been added to the Location field.
  4. Click the Advanced… button to edit the setting of the image.

A. When to scale – choose when to scale the image you insert. 

B. Scale – choose to scale the image non-proportionally or proportionally. This option will be disabled when you select Never in the field of When to scale.

C. Border – drag and move the scroll bar to change image’s position in the rectangle. The coordinates change when you move the scroll bar.

  1. Click OK for your changes to take effect, or click Reset to reset the data to the original settings.
  2. Click OK.
