And to place the image in the exact center of the page I'll move my cursor until I see the red and green guides appear and click. By clicking instead of dragging, I place the image at 100% of its original size. And I can see that with the image selected in the context toolbar. I can also see its name, pixel dimensions, resolution, and scale. If I click anywhere in this sizing information I get a popup where I can scale the image to a specific percentage or DPI. So to scale it down to 50% I can click and drag the slider. And notice there are points along the slider that my cursor snaps to. So that makes it easy to scale down to 75%, 50%, 25% and so on or I could go up to 200%…
