Greetings - I am not sure how to explain this without screenshots so I have attached a PDF with screenshot example.

I am using mail merge to insert over 800 QR code images onto a Word QR label template. My QR code images are being inserted as tiny images and I couldn't figure out why because the size of the original image was much bigger (175 pixels by 175 pixels). Because there are so many images and they are all unique, I cannot go through and manually update the images one by one. And we will be repeating this process over and over so I must figure out a way to non-manually transfer these QR codes on the label template!

After some troubleshooting (even outside mail merge this happens), I concluded that the location from which one copies the image is somehow adjusting the size. See screenshots - if I copy it from the Documents Library (without opening the image, simply clicking on the file name and copying it), pasting it into Word results in a tiny image (not the original size). If I open the image in Paint or another program and copy it from the actual image and THEN paste it into Word, then it pastes it as the original size.

I can't seem to figure out how to make Word paste the image in the original size no matter where it is copied from (because I can't force Mail Merge to copy the image in a certain way). If I can figure this out, perhaps I can get my Mail Merge to work!

Any help would be appreciated! And if this matters at all, this is what I am using in Mail Merge to pull in the image:

{INCLUDEPICTURE {IF TRUE {MERGEFIELD Picture}} \d}

Thanks!
