5. For Pixel Replacement variables, set the following options.

Choose a method for scaling the replacement image: Fit scales the image so that it fits in the bounding box (which may leave parts of
the bounding box empty), Fill scales the image so that it fills the bounding box entirely (which may cause the image to extend beyond
the bounding box), As Is applies no scaling to the image, and Conform scales the image non-proportionally so that it fits in the
bounding box.

Click a handle on the alignment icon

to choose an alignment for placing the image inside the bounding box. (This option is not

available for Conform.)

Select Clip To Bounding Box to clip areas of the image that do not fit in the bounding box. This option is available only when the Fill
or As Is replacement method is selected. (This option is not available for Conform.)
