To add an image to your narrative, follow these steps.

Tip: Always save before exiting the narrative's edit mode. There is no auto save, so make sure to save so you don’t lose your hard work.

  1. In the ‘Sections’ area of the Plan Content, open the section you want to edit.
  2. Select the appropriate link to open the narrative where you want to add an image.
  3. Select the ‘Edit’ button.
  4. In the content field under ‘Enter Narrative (*required)’ place the cursor where you want your image within the text.
  5. In the editing ribbon above the content field, select the image icon.
  6. In the ‘Insert Image’ box that pops up, follow the instructions to select your gif, png, jpg, or jpeg image. Confirm the image name displays in the ‘Insert image’ box.
  7. Describe the image in the required ‘Alternative text’ field; screen readers read this alt text and it displays if the image does not appear.
    • To edit the image’s alignment, select from the alignment choices.
    • If you want to add a caption, use the checkbox to select Caption.
  8. Select ‘Save’ to add your image to the content area. (This is only saving the image.)
    • If you selected Caption, below the image, change ‘Enter caption here’ to your text.
  9. To save your narrative including the image, select the ‘Save’ button.
