How can I edit images on a Substack post?

With the Substack post editor, there's a variety of things you can do with an image that's been added to a post.

Need to change the size of an image?

Once you add an image, click on the diagonal arrows at the bottom right corner of the image. This will size the image making it larger or smaller– whatever your preference.

To make your image full width, click on on the three dots in the top right corner and select "Set full width".
