I've searched for an answer to this but the ones I've found don't exactly work. Let's say I have an app that is set at 640x480. I want to paste a screenshot into WinWord. So, I Alt-PrtScn when it's active, and paste it into WinWord. Now here's the problem. Let's say I want to extract the bitmap back out, or just edit it a little with pixel resolution (i.e. get exactly my same 640x480 back out). If I right click on it, the "Edit Picture" button is disabled. Strangely enough, if the picture is very small, the "Edit Picture" is enabled and launching it brings MS PaintBrush (which is what I want for the bigger picture). I'm guessing Microsoft is compressing larger images and making the compression lossy. I don't want lossy compression and I want to be able to edit the original 640x480 painted image. As it is now, I can't get back out the same quality of the image I put in. It's "lossy" (blah!). Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi, I am using Microsoft Office Word 2003. When I insert a graphic (in any format), I cannot see it, but it does print on my hardcopies. I have switched views from normal, to print laytout, to web layout, to reading layout and it does not appear. Also when I "print preview" it does not appear. Most of my pictures are jpegs, but I also occasionally use eps and tif (same thing happens). Under my "view" options, everything is checked under "show." And under "print and layout options," everything is checked except "background color and images (print view only)." Please let me know what I can do to see the pictures I am inserting into my Word documents. Thanks. - 4. locking figures in Word 2002
I have a figure in a Word document that has text above and below the figure. I have tried to anchor the figure to the paragraph above so that when I add additional text to the document it appears below the figure. However, the figure keeps moving down and the new text moves up to above the figure. Any ideas on how to correct this? I have gone into format pictures/layout/advanced and checked lock anchor,move picture with text and allow overlap boxes. -- LAC - 5. How do i insert a logo that is saved as a bitmap over jpeg bkgrnd

Hi JR, If you use Alt-PrtScn and paste into an app like MS Paint, you can edit the image and save to disk. You can then embed/insert the saved image into Word. If you insert as a link, you can then make further changes to the saved image and have these reflected in the linked image in Word without having to redo the image in Word.

Word 2002; windows 2000 Having a new document open and pressing a command button to run my VBA command: it opens a master document and copies a picture of a signature off the master document to the clipboard. It closes the master document and returns the new document letter that I am writing. It pastes the signature to the new letter. The problem is that it does not paste it where my cursor is. It pastes it at the top of the document. Is there something in my coding that would tell it to paste it at the insertion point. Thank you in advance...
2.Office Clipboard shows icon(s) when first opened, and can't paste XP clipboard contents
Hi, I'm using Windows XP Home SP2 and Office 2003, a wired keyboard and using Word 2003 as my email editor. When I try to copy from the internet and paste into Outlook all I get is an icon rather than the text/picture I've copied (Ctrl-C) from the net. This happens everytime if Outlook/Office is closed when I make my selection. However, if Outlook/Office is open when I make my selection then the selection pastes as expected. I'm pretty sure this didn't use to happen, and it doesn't happen when I use Windows 2000 SP4 and Office XP/2002 at work. Is there an option to allow this, or is it a bug or something that wipes out the clipboard when I open Office? I would expect that the XP clipboard is separate from Office and should contain whatever I copy under any circumstance. Therefore I have to assume that Office isn't handling the data from the XP clipboard properly when opening. When I first open Outlook, if I look in the clipboard I can see anywhere from 1-4 icons. There's a blue one with a green arroe like a floopy insert icon, then there are up to 3 other Yellow floppy icons one with a green checkmark, one with a red cross (X), and one plain yellow floppy icon. I thought I'd read something about the first entry in the Office clipboard getting mangled or deleted or something when Office opens, but I can't recall where. Anyway this is really driving me crazy, if you can help me I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Norm
3.Cannot Edit pasted Picture in Word 2003
I recently rolled out Office 2003 to my organization and when we used to be on Office 2000 we would be able to take a print screen and paste it into Word. well now since we are on Office 2003 once the picture is pasted into the word document, you cannot right click on the picture and hit edit, EDIT is grayed out. How can I get this EDIT option available to me? Any help would be appreciated Thanks Keith Schlottman
4.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
5.Editing a Table Pasted from Excel into Word as a Picture (Enhanced
If you need to edit the text in the table, I'd recommend pasting special as an Excel worksheet object, not as a picture. It'll show as a metafile anyway, but when you need to edit you can edit in in Excel. -- ----------------------------------------- This posting is provided "as is" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
