If you use Microsoft Office 2010, it is more things for you to do with pictures. You can enhance your picture by adding effects, such as shadows, glows, reflections, soft edges, bevels, and three-dimensional (3-D) rotations to it. Next, I will give guidance in details. I will take Microsoft Word 2010 for exmaple, and it is the same in other Microsoft Office applications.
Solution
- First, select the picture you will add or change an effect for.

- On the ribbon, click "Picture Tools" > "Format" tab, and go to "Picture Styles" group.
