Subject:PageMaker help From:John Prince <prince1 -at- WEBTV -dot- NET> Date:Tue, 6 Jan 1998 12:27:23 -0600
I created a few graphics of dialog boxes in PageMaker 6.5 - and I'm
having problems inserting them into a Word document.
My first thought was to simply copy and paste the graphics into Word -
but it didn't work.
I then thought I could simply save the PageMaker graphic as a bitmap or
something and then open it in HiJaak or Paint and copy it into Word -
but that didn't work.
The best I can do is to capture the graphic in HiJaak, and then copy it
from HiJaak into Word - but the reslolution is not as clear as I would
like.
Does anyone know why it is that I cannot copy a graphic from Page and
paste it in Word? I tried copying some text from Page and it worked
fine. But for some reason the line art won't copy over.
Any and all help will be duly appreciated.
Thanks!
