Translating doument, need scanned copy visible with word document

[domjohn]

How can I have a scanned picture of a 13th c document visible at the same
time I translate - rather than move back and forth between two douments. To
print out does not give a clear document

If your screen is big enough, just open the scan on one side and Word
on the other, with the two windows sized so they don't overlap. (To
resize a window, click the middle button at the right end of the title
bar; the window will get small. Click on the edge of the window's
frame (or on the lower right corner) and drag it to the size you want.
Do the same for the window of your translation.

If you inserted the scanned picture into a Word document, you can use
the Window menu in Word 2003 or earlier, or the View tab of the ribbon
in Word 2007, to display that document and the translation at the same
time.

If the scanned picture is in a graphics file, you could open that in a
graphics program such as IrfanView, and use the window commands on the
right-click menu of the Windows taskbar to tile it below or beside the
Word window.

A major functionality of the Graphic User Interface like Windows is the
ability to show multiple windows on the screen, each taking up a portion of
the screen real estate. Open your scanned picture in a graphics program and
make sure it is not maximized. Now open a Word window and make sure it is
not maximized. Resize both windows by moving their borders, and position
them side-by-side or above-below.
