Change the size of images when next to text

Does anyone know if it is possible to make images larger when side by side with text? 

 

I would love to have the text a little smaller and the image much larger, especially in presentation mode. 

 

Please see attached image for details.

    Yes, correct. Those are the options you'll find in Paper docs at the moment, Demos. 

     

    In your case, perhaps it would be preferable if you edited the photo through a 3rd party app to adjust its size and/or resolution before uploading it in your Paper doc

     

    Let me know if this makes sense or if you have any additional questions.

    Hi Demos Katsouris; welcome to the Community!

     

    I believe you're doing this in a Paper doc of yours; correct me if I'm wrong please.

     

    In that case, you should be getting an option to change the outlay of your inserted images by selecting the picture itself and adjust it from the toolbar you'll get there.

     

    Let me know if this helps!

    I am working on a paper doc. Unfortunately I do not seem to be able to scale up the size of the image and squeeze the text in a narrower and taller column. 

     

    Please let me know how would that be possible!

    Do you get the toolbar which enables you to adjust the inserted image's outlay at all, Demos? 

     

    This is how it looks like on my end:

    Hello, 

     

    Thanks for the response. I can see the toolbar. Unfortunately, I do not have the option (or maybe I do not see it), to adjust the size of the image. I can only arrange it on the left, right, and across the whole width of my paper doc. Am I missing something?
    Kind regards,
