Except for the fact that using a screen shot is a poor solution...

Text is no longer editable characters--it's just pixels now.

The Visio shapes are no longer editable vector objects--they are
just pixels now.

And the resolution of the whole image has been frozen at the
resolution of the capture, which can cause all osrts of problems
if you need to resize.

My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel

The winner of the simple-solution prize of the month is Paresh, who
suggested:

'one work around could be to take a screen capture of the image by opening
it in Visio or Illustrator.'

And that, of course, worked a charm. I am in Paresh's debt.

Now, you grammarians can argue about whether I should have hyphenated 'prize
of the month'.

Thanks everyone.
