In Word 2013, how do I get an inserted image to fill the entire page by default.

I have been using Word 2000 to prepare my photo reports.  I have a template that I use just for photo reports.  I hit a shortcut key, select the photo, hit enter, and the photo fills the entire 8x11 page, with the exception of a small area at the bottom, which I use to add a description of the photo.  I have upgraded to Word 2013 and run into a problem.  Now when I insert the photo it fills only a portion of the page.  I must manually drag the corners of the photo to get it to fill the entire page.  With 2000 I was able to complete a 20 page photo report in a matter of a few minutes.  This now takes me two to three times longer, since I have to manually adjust each photo to fill the page.

I'm sure there must be an easy solution, and am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

Thank you,

Duke

I have resolved the issue.  I simply had to click the "Convert" button next to "Compatibility Mode" in the "Info" section.  Now the photo template works with 2013 just as it did with 2000.

Thank you Stefan and Alexander for taking the time to respond.  I appreciate it.

Best regards,
