How to: Assign Pictures

You can use the Contact Picture window to enter a logo or photograph of your contacts. To be able to assign a picture to a contact, you must first scan it and save it to a location from where it can be selected.

To assign a picture to a contact, the scanned picture must be in the bitmap (.bmp) format.
