In Chapter 4, I learned how to follow the directions of the ArcGIS manual.  Some things can be a little hairy, but I successfully inserted my image and sized it after doing a screen capture with the help of Picture Manager.

In Chapter 18c , I exported a map in three different image file formats.  The EMF file is 151 KB, the JPEG is 214 KB, and the bitmap is 2525 KB.  Because I want my web pages to load quickly, I will use the smallest image flile below.
