RE: Importing Graphics from Word
You should be able to select the graphic in Word and copy it to the clipboard. Then paste it into a graphics tool, i.e., Photoshop. Then you can save it as whatever format you prefer and import this, by reference, into Frame. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] m] On Behalf Of Barb Vogel Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 2:54 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Importing Graphics from Word I have been converting Word documents to FrameMaker 7.1.

Re: Importing Graphics from Word
I did this recently. I saved the Word doc as .html. This puts all the graphics (it seems) into a folder in their native format/resolution. The folder contained graphics in .wmf, .wmz, .emf, .emz, .png, .gif, and .jpg formats. There was often a resized .jpg in the folder also. ljk ___ Deja Moo: The feeling that you've heard this bull before.

RE: Importing Graphics from Word
FWIW, this is the method I use and highly recommend it. -Nicole -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] .com] On Behalf Of Owen, Clint Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 11:24 AM To: 'framers@frameusers.com' Subject: FW: Importing Graphics from Word Barb, Another solution is to convert the Word Doc to PDF first. Then extract each page with a graphic, crop and rotate as necessary, and save with your preferred file name. Now you can import the extracted pdf graphic by reference.

RE: Importing Graphics from Word
I copy graphics the way that David described, copying it into PaintShop Pro. But I tested Barb's method and she gets much better quality. I wonder why?
