Insert and format images — AI Prompts for Google Docs

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task

Insert the product hero image into the spec at the top of the second page, crop it to a 16:9 frame centered on the device, add a caption with the image source and release date, and set the image to wrap with 12-point padding so the text flows nicely. Save and notify Lena that the visuals are in place for review.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I share this doc with design, make the images speak clearly to a reviewer scanning for usability problems. Replace low-resolution screenshots with a single clean hero, add a caption that explains what the screenshot shows and where it came from, label any mockups with version numbers, and ensure every image has alt text describing the visual for accessibility checks.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I just pasted three screenshots and now the doc looks cluttered and Lena says she can't tell which is latest.

Design can't tell which mockup is final because all images are unlabeled and sizes jump around. I can only fix captions and placement before the review in 30 minutes. What three edits will make the intent clear to design and prevent them from marking everything 'needs clarification'?

Become — change the pattern

I keep getting feedback that images are unclear or unlabeled, delaying reviews.

On projects I repeatedly lose time because screenshots and mockups arrive unlabeled, with no source or version, and design keeps asking for clarification. What two habits should I change when inserting images so reviewers know version, origin, and status immediately, and how do I enforce them across the next five documents?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
