Changing the export area of a Smart ClipArt image

One of the strengths of the Smart ClipArt image format is that you can choose which part of an image is visible in the Web document by modifying its export area. The export area is a rectangular region that determines what part of the image will be saved in bitmapped format for display in the document. Each Smart ClipArt image that comes with Namo WebEditor has a predefined export area, and you can modify this in the Smart ClipArt Editor.
