Automated image scale adjustment based upon document and image context

A machine-readable medium for automated digital image scaling, the machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when performed by a machine, causes the machine to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a selection of a digital image and a desired placement position in a digital document, the digital image having a first size;
• automatically determining a second size of the digital image, the second size different than the first size and calculated based upon a determined relevance of one or more recognized objects depicted in the digital image to a portion of the digital document;
• automatically scaling the digital image from the first size to the second size;
• and
• automatically placing the scaled digital image in the digital document at the desired placement position.

A computing device for automated digital image scaling, the computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory, the memory comprising instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a selection of a digital image and a desired placement position in a digital document, the digital image having a first size;
• automatically determining a second size of the digital image, the second size different than the first size and calculated based upon a determined relevance of one or more recognized objects depicted in the digital image to a portion of the digital document;
• automatically scaling the digital image from the first size to the second size;
• and
• automatically placing the scaled digital image in the digital document at the desired placement position.
