1 Click the Edit Layout button, if it’s not already selected.
2 Select the photo box you want to change.
3 Choose Photo Box Alignment from the Book Action pop-up menu, then choose an
alignment option from the submenu.
 To have an image scale to fit the size of the box on the page: Choose Scale to Fill.

Scale slider to rescale images.
