I am looking for a similar solution posted by Donahue, 8/20/04, 7:07 am. I have pasted excel charts and enhanced metafile pictures in a word document, sent this to a colleague who has Word 2001 for the Mac, and she is unable to view these files. She sees a big (red?) X. Size/memory is not an issue here. Any help here?

- 1. Additional Testing
I spent 2 hours on the phone with Adobe Acrobat support. They had me try every possible option under the sun and we were not able to resolve this issue. While on the phone, I realize that the PNG renders poor only if the graphic has transparency enabled. I asked the support technician to raise the ticket. He put me on hold and returned to say that it was raised, but they declared it a "bug" and suggested I upgrade to Acrobat 9. I did, but it has the same issue. - 2. How do you set the default formatting of inserted pictures?
I'd like all my inserted pictuers to have a blue border. Can I make that a default? - 3. Excel Graph in Word printing larger than it looks in print preview
I have reports which I produce in MS Word with embedded bar charts. When I am updating a report with new information, I change the data in the Excel worksheet that defines the chart, and then when I return to editing in Word, everything looks fine on the screen. However, when I print - whether to an Adobe PDF document or directly to a printer, the information in the charts is blown up to about 125% of original size. Since the chart box prints in the original size, the content does not all show. How do I fix this? - 4. Excel graph refreshes too much
I have many excel graphs included in a word document. Some excel graphs include lots of data. Everytime I move my mouse or try to type when this type of graph is on the screen, the graph has to refresh again and again and it's really annoying. Can I turn off graphic refresh or can I increase memory availability to solve this problem? Any help is appreciated. - 5. Picture shearing in Word 2003
I want to make a picture that I have inserted from a rectangle into a parallelogram bounding picture, but I can't find any useful button/options to do that. Is this even supported? If so, where would I find this functionality?

You might like to look at http://www.**--****.com/ I have the same problem. At home I have a Mac running Office v.X and at work I am using Word 2000. The problem works both ways. I "paste special" my Excel graphs at home as "picture" and the document has the red X problem on my PC at work and vice versa. The odd thing is that not all of the graphs disappear. Some remain intact.

1.Editing a Table Pasted from Excel into Word as a Picture (Enhanced Metafile)
Hi: I am copying a section of an Excel Spreadsheet, and then pasting into word using Paste Special -> Picture (Enhanced Metafile) When I right click on the object in word, one of the menu choices is "Edit Picture" This will allow me to change text in the picture, which seems to be included through the use of text boxes. I make a minor change that is required, but then I cannot seem to revert the image or picture back to its previous form, which seems to be as a normal picture file that has been inserted. The only way I can figure out how to do this is by using the undo command, but I loose my text chance. If the picture stays in the new, editable format, whenever I click into it, all of the text is becomes highlighted, which really slows down my ability to continue work on the rest of the document. The new format seems to be seen by word as a Drawing Canvas. Does anyone know how I can make a text change, and then get Word to see the image as an inserted picture file again as opposed to this drawing canvas? Thanks, Brooks
2.Pasting Excel cells as "Picture (Enhanced Metafile)"
Hello I need to paste cells from Excel into Word as "Picture (Enhanced Metafile)" (I need to do this over 100 times). Every time I do this, the resulting picture's top left corner ends up violating the top left margin of the Word document (even though my cursor was located at the top left corner of the page when I did the pasting). I then have to both move and resize this picture. Is there any way to either a) automatically resize the picture so it has the largest possible size without violating any of the page margins (and not being distorted) OR b) if (a) above is not possible, at least move the picture so that its top left corner is at the top left corner (as defined by the margins set for the page) of the page? Thank you for your help!

4.Font colours disappear when pasting to Powerpoint as Metafile/Enhanced metafile
When using copy/paste special to take a range from Excel 2002 to Powerpoint 2002 all is fine on my PCs - i.e. all formats are kept as expected. However, my client has 2 of his own machines and 2 of his clients that lose the font colour only - all text is black (background colours etc are fine). Colour is retained in HTML and Bitmap formats but not Metafile or Enahnced Metafile. Anyone else had this problem? If so, any solutions please.
5.Pasting Excel Charts as Enhanced Metafiles
Since upgrading to Office 2003, I am unable to successfully paste Graphs made in Excel as enhanced metafiles into my office's Microsoft Word report template. When I paste special, as an enhanced metafile, I am only able to see the very bottom piece of the graph. I can move the graph around and resize it, but it will not show up on screen. Nor does it show up in print preview. BUT it comes out just fine when I print a hard copy. This issue is unique to our report template, as I can paste Excel graphs into a blank Word document with no trouble. But it is also unique to Excel, as I can successfully paste graphs made in Power Point into our report template. I've tried re-creating the template in 2003 but that did not help. I've also tried every combination of Office 2000 and 2003 pastes (i.e. graphs made in Excel 2003 into the 2000 template, graphs made in Excel 2000 into the 2003 template, etc). Nothing seems to work. Has anyone seen this problem before? Any suggestions on how to get aorund it?
