Word 2002 at least can do it, and I'd assume later versiosn except possibly the lates x version. Here's from Help: ======================== About reducing a picture's file size To save room on your hard disk or to reduce download time, you can use the Compress Pictures feature to do the following: a.. Reduce resolution (to 96 dots per inch (dpi) for Web and 200 dpi for print), and unnecessary information is discarded. b.. Discard extra information. For example, when a picture has been cropped or resized, the "hidden" parts of the picture are stored in the file. c.. Compress the picture, if possible. ================ I've never found the same thing in OO.o, but I haven't looked much for it either. Also yes, Word can trigger a couple of different image editing/management modes. HTH Twayne
