When editing images, users often need to highlight specific subjects. Cluttered or distracting backgrounds can divert attention and reduce visual clarity. Manually creating a background blur effect typically requires specialized photo editing software, adding unnecessary steps to your workflow. WPS Office integrates this functionality directly into its image tools.

Step 1: Open Image Editing Tools

Open your image in WPS Office to access the picture editing interface.
