To take a photo using the device’s built-in or attached camera or webcam:

1. Go to Markup > Camera or use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+ALT+I. A Camera preview window appears showing the current view from the device's primary camera.
2. Click the Shutter button to take a picture.
3. Click Use to place the photo onto the document, or Retake to try again.

The photo will be automatically placed into the current page of the document as an Image markup. This markup can be moved and resized as needed.

The Camera tool can cycle between multiple cameras for Tablet PCs or computers that have multiple cameras built-in or attached.

You can switch cameras from the Camera preview window before taking your photo. To do so, click the Switch button on the Camera preview window. This button will only appear if multiple cameras are available.

The last camera selection will be recalled the next time the Camera tool is activated.

When rotating devices, such as Tablet PCs, the camera should rotate accordingly.

If, however, the rotation of the camera’s image is opposite the device’s rotation, correct it by doing the following:

1. Go to Settings > Preferences > Camera to open the Camera Preferences.
2. From the Portrait Camera Rotation drop-down list, select Inverted.
3. Click OK.

Lowering the resolution settings can be useful when several photos will be placed on a single document and document file size is a concern.

To change resolution settings:

1. Go to Settings > Preferences > Camera to open the Camera Preferences.
2. From the Photo Resolution drop-down list, select Low, Medium or High as desired.
3. Click OK.

See the Camera Preferences topic for details on these settings.
