Solution for When Korean Images Disappear - Complete Guide to Inserting, Rotating, and Editing Images

When editing a Hangul file, there are often times when you need to use images.

However, simply inserting them might not position them as desired, or you may have difficulty finding editing features such as rotation or cropping.

An even more frustrating moment is when an image that you carefully inserted suddenly disappears.

This article covers the basics of handling images in Hangul, as well as the essential editing features needed in practice.

We will guide you through inserting, rotating, cropping, layering, adjusting transparency, and solving the issue of disappearing images without panic.

By reading this article alone, you can avoid wasting more time on image editing.

Mastering the Basic Methods of Inserting Images in Hangul

How to Insert Images into Hangul Files

1. Select [Insert] → [Image] from the top menu.

2. Choose the image file (PNG, JPG, etc.) to load and insert.

💡 Tip. When inserting images, it's good to select the options “Integrate into Document” and “Treat as Character.”

Integrate into Document: This feature directly saves the image file within the document, and it must be checked.

Treat as Character: This treats the image as an element of the text so that it remains fixed at its position even when the document content is modified or added.

3. Since the inserted image is typically positioned in line with text, positional adjustment may be required as needed.

Adjusting Image Size and Position

When you click on an image, adjustment points appear on its border, allowing you to drag to reduce or enlarge its size.

If you wish to make fine adjustments, you can select the image and directly input desired values in the [Object Properties] → [Size] menu.

Stabilizing Layout Through Text Arrangement

When an image is placed within a paragraph, the text might be pushed into an awkward position.

In such cases, selecting the image and utilizing the “Text in Front/Text in Back” options under [Object Properties] → [Arrange with Text] will help organize the layout stably.

Comprehensive Guide to Image Editing Functions in Hangul Files

Rotating Images in Hangul Documents

1. After selecting the image, free rotation can be performed from the top menu [Image] → [Rotate/Flip].

2. The “Input Angle” feature allows you to rotate the image to specific angles such as 15°, 90°, etc.

💡 Tip. Occasionally, the rotation menu may be disabled. To enable the rotation menu, you must uncheck the [Treat as Character] option under the [Image] tab.

Cropping Image Files

1. Select the image and click [Image] → [Photo Editing] → [Crop] from the top menu.

2. Drag the desired area to crop it out, which will neatly remove any unnecessary parts.

💡Tip. Clicking the image and dragging the edge inward while holding the Shift key instantly executes the crop mode.

Layering Image Files in Hangul

1. Select the desired image from [Insert] → [Image] in the top menu to load it.

2. Verify the release of each image's treatment as a character option.

3. After selecting the image, adjust the position under [Object Properties] → [Location] → [Arrange with Text].

   Third Text in Front: Arrange the image to layer over text

   Fourth Text in Back: Arrange the image behind text

💡 Tip. If you want to move layered images simultaneously, utilize the “Group Objects” feature.

Hold the Shift key and select all overlapping objects, then right-click → Group → Group Objects

Adjusting Image Transparency in Hangul

Select the image → [Object Properties] → [Image] → [Transparency Effect] menu to adjust transparency.

Transparency can be used to add background images or watermarks naturally.
