Need a 2×2 photo for your passport or job application? The photo you take in a photography studio might not be good-looking and you cannot improve it as you want. A high-quality ID image made by a professional photographer also costs a lot. To save the trouble, what you can do as a substitute is to make a 2×2 image by yourself. By doing this, you don\u2019t have to be a Photoshop master. In the following paragraphs, we will present how to make 2×2 photos in Microsoft Word with basic skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the 2X2 picture dimensions?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you will cut the picture into 2×2 on your own, you need to know the precise dimensions of the 2×2 picture<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 The 2\u00d72 picture size in inches is 2 in x 2 in<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 The 2\u00d72 picture size in centimeters (cm) is 5.08 cm x 5.08 cm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 The 2\u00d72 picture size in millimeters (mm) is 50.8 mm x 50.8 mm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 The 2\u00d72 picture size in pixels is 600 x 600 pixels<\/strong> at 300 DPI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make a 2\u00d72 Picture in Microsoft Word<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1.<\/strong> Open Microsoft Word and create a blank document. Click the Insert tab and then click Pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>. Select the photo that you want to use and click the Insert button to insert the picture into your Word document. Take note that the photo must be formal to be put on an official document.                       <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"make<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

You can also right-click the picture and select Copy on the menu, then paste it into the new Word document by right-clicking the blank page and selecting Paste.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"make<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>. The next step is to simply left-click on the picture and a tab at the top of your Microsoft Word program that says Picture Format should appear. The Format menu contains several image editing options such as Adjust, Size, and Picture Styles. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"make<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>. Click the Crop button in the area of Size and select Aspect Ratio to make it 1:1. This ensures that the edited photo will always have a square shape.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"crop<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

You will notice a square canvas covering the photo. Everything outside the square canvas will be cut out of the photo after cropping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can adjust the crop by resizing the canvas. Move the cursor to the black line on the edge of the canvas and then drag it around. Complete the cropping by clicking the Crop button once more, or simply click anywhere outside the photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5<\/strong>. Once you\u2019re satisfied with the appearance of the photo, it\u2019s time to resize it to the 2\u00d72 picture size. On the area of Size, you can see the height and width of the picture. Adjust both sizes to 5.08 cm. Your photo has now been resized. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"make<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

That\u2019s it! Now you have made a 2\u00d72 picture using Microsoft Word. You may save the picture to your computer by right-clicking the photo and selecting Save as Picture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to resize pictures without losing quality in Microsoft Word?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, when we zoom in or zoom out images, the pixels of images will change, too. The quality of pictures gets worse as we enlarge photos. So how to adjust pictures and maintain the picture resolution at the same time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>. After inserting or copy-paste your pictures in Microsoft Word, press Files from the up-left corner of the File<\/strong> window. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"resize<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>. Then go to Options<\/strong> and choose Advanced<\/strong>. You can find the Image Size and Quality section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>. Tick the box for Don\u2019t compress images in the file<\/strong><\/em> and press OK<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"resize<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>. Then you can resize the image by dragging the corner circles. If you have a specific size in mind, you can find the Size on the top right corner of the screen. Click Size and enter the dimensions in the Shape Height and Shape Width fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then you will have an adjusted photo without losing its quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Save Your 2\u00d72 Picture as JPEG or PNG<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you finish making your 2×2 ID image in Microsoft Word, you perhaps want to save it as a picture file(JPEG or PNG). Then you can use it in different situations, from your passport to your LinkedIn profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To save your picture as JPEG or PNG, right-click the picture and select Save as Picture. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"resize<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Then a new dialogue box will pop up. You can give a new name to the picture file so you can find it next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Save as Type, remember to choose JPEG File Interchange format or Portable Network Graphics (PNG). <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"resize<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Then click save when you are done. You can now attach the photo to your emails, website accounts, online applications, and many more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
