![]() | Apply or remove an artistic effect from a picture |
You can apply artistic effects to a picture or a picture fill to make the picture look more like a sketch, drawing, or painting. A picture fill is a shape or other object with a picture applied to "fill it." You can apply only one artistic effect at a time to a picture, so applying a different artistic effect will remove the previously applied artistic effect.

If you don't like the results of the compression and artistic effect, you can change the compression even after you save the file as long as you have not closed the program that you are working in. |
