Installing Boxy SVG

In the Styles Gallery, I've selected a preset that has a light blue fill to match my company theme. In the example below, I've inserted a logo of a bicycle and the original is all black.

One of the key features of the Graphics Styles gallery is its collection of pre-defined styles for converting your image to a line drawing or changing the fill color of it. Let's take a look at some of the more useful options the Graphic Format tab offers you.

Changing Graphic

This feature lets you select a different image to replace the current image with. To access these tools, click on your SVG image and a contextual Graphic Format tab should appear on the Ribbon. You can then customize how your SVG image looks in your document by selecting an individual piece of the image and modifying it as needed.

Customizing SVG Images

To insert an SVG file in Office for Mac, simply use Insert > Pictures like any other image file. Here's a short video where Doug shows you how it's done.

Once inserted, you can customize individual parts of the image by using the Convert to Shape option. Many SVG files (including Office icons) are single-color images that can be easily modified this way.

Resizing and Cropping

The Size options on the Graphics Format tab of the Ribbon let you crop the image or specify precise dimensions for it, ensuring a perfect fit in your document. You can also resize the image without any loss of image quality.

Applying Preset Styles

You can apply preset styles that include both a fill color and an outline, as well as special effects such as a shadow, reflection, or glow. All these options are available on the Graphics Format tab of the Ribbon when an image is selected on the canvas.

Rotating and Aligning

As with any shape in an Office document, you can rotate it and use alignment options for more precise placement.

Inserting SVG Images

To insert an SVG image into your file, simply browse or search with keywords for the SVG file you want to insert, then select it and choose Insert. You can also apply preset styles or modify individual parts of the image as needed.

In conclusion, installing Boxy SVG is a straightforward process that allows you to customize individual parts of the image and integrate it seamlessly into your Office document.
