Remove Background  

Here is a new option: You can use the Picture Tools to remove the Background on a picture. The example on this page has a complex background: the clouds are different shades of blue. Will it work? Let's see.

 

1. Try it: Remove the Background
The balloon picture is selected.
Go to Picture Tools -> Format.
Go to
Adjust ->Remove Background.

 

2. Try This, Now: Mark the Areas
Microsoft Word compares the colors in your picture and makes a reasonable guess. The suggested background is displayed in a pink mask. The areas that will be kept are shown in full color.

 

3. And Try This: Keep the Changes
Click Keep Changes to see your picture without a background. You can change the Marked Areas by clicking again on Remove Background. The marks will still be there if you wish to add or remove some areas.
