Jpg files and some help when pasting them into a word document. Why does the file size increase dramatically?

I have been helping my daughter prepare her CV which she wants to email to employment agencies over seas, before she travels. She has 10 Diplomas/Certificates to include at the end of her CV %26amp; I have changed them from word to .jpg format which reduced them significantly in size. In .jpg format the 10 files total 567KB ( about half a MB). After I paste those 10 files into the CV (a word document) the file size INCREASES to 3.854 MB, which when combined with the rest of her CV comes to a toal file size of more than 4MB. This file size is too large to email easily ( she uses hotmail). Can someone please HELP. Why do the jpg files increase so much in size?. What can I do to get the total CV (including .jpg's) down to a more manageable %26amp; user friendly size?. Thanks

Use a Web site intended for transfers of large files.

There are several such sites, all easy to use. Also see e-mailing of large files.

http://www.yousendit.com/

http://www.dropload.com/

http://www.sendthisfile.com/



YouSendIt lets you upload files up to 1 gigabyte in size. Then you notify to the recipient to download only that specific file.



The files can be downloaded any time for the first week鈥攁fter that they are deleted.



Dropload is another site dedicated to e-mailing large files (up to 100 megabytes). Registration is free.



Type in the recipient's e-mail address. Dropload will be sent an e-mail together with a link for downloading the file. Again, the files can be downloaded any time for the first week鈥攁fter that they are deleted.

Well.. images are files that take some space. You inserted 10 of them into the word document. Images are files that contain pixel information (size, where every pixel goes in the picture) so the amount of data is a lot bigger than ordinary text. My suggestion? Find a file sharing site and send your daughter the link to the CV.
