How do I centre an image in Preview?

How do I centre an image in Preview version 8.1? I see no "helping lines" that tell you when to stop for an image to be centred.

Preview.app as far back as I remember never had this functionality.


Pages.app does this I suspect.


If it is a one off project you could do it manually with a ruler:

More sophisticated photo editing apps may have this as a feature for ex.
