Subject:Problem with graphics in Word 7.0 on NT 4.0 From:"McMARTIN, Robert" <rmcmarti -at- BAEA -dot- COM -dot- AU> Date:Wed, 1 Jul 1998 09:41:17 +0930
Morning Tech-Whirlers,
In the manuals I'm working on I'm using a lot of imported screen images.
The problem I'm having is after I import the graphic, resize it to the
required size for the page and then save and exit the document, next
time I go into the document, or print the document the graphics have
returned to the original size.
The graphics original sizes are about 40cm x 40cm and are resized in the
document to 14cm x 14 cm.
As you can imagine when you have 30 or 40 graphics per section and
seven, or eight sections in a manual you can have a very busy time not
getting any real work done.
Thank you all in advance

There can be no reconciliation where there is no open warfare.
There must be a battle, a brave boisterous battle, with
pennants waving and cannon roaring, before there can be
peaceful treaties and enthusiastic shaking of hands.
-- Mary Elizabeth Braddon
(1837-1915).
