help, how to convert publisher files to word?
You can save it to Word but you will lose all of your formatting and
pictures. May I ask why you want to convert it to Word? If it's so that more people can read whatever the document is, I'd say to create a .pdf file and distribute that. If you are hard set to convert it to Word, File|Save As and change your file type. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "ajt" wrote in message ... i would appreciate any knowledge offered on how to convert publisher files to word. thanks, please email |

help, how to convert publisher files to word?
Hello. Not trying to butt in here. But, I scanned a document with Microsoft Office Document Scanning. Now I want to be able to edit the text, but keep all the formatting. How on earth do I do this? It's driving me crazy! When Word opens the document, all my formatting is gone! Thank you, Sherry "JL Paules" wrote in message ...

You edit it in Publisher. If YOU don't have Publisher and you're getting the
file from someone else, then you really don't have much of a choice. The Word file you get from Publisher has no formatting, no pictures, nothing except text. It seems that someone is sending you the file and you're supposed to make corrections. Did they know ahead of time that you didn't have Publisher? Did they ask? I know the answer...well, sucks, but that's the way it works. If this is for business, suggest your employer purchase it for you. If this is for an organization you belong to, see if they can fit it in the budget. If it's for personal use, buy it for yourself. It's a great program and well worth the money. Sorry I can't give you a better answer. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Sherry" wrote in message ... But how can I edit the text? Sherry ;o) "JL Paules" wrote in message ...

I may not be explaining myself very well. I DO have Publisher. I must be
missing something here. I scanned the document with Microsoft Office Document Scanning. Then I hit save it as a TIFF file and try to open it in Publisher and the only way I can open it is as a 'Recover Text From Any File" type in the drop down box. Then the formatting is ALL screwed up, big time! I thought Publisher could open TIFF files??? Any ideas or siggestions or am I just missing something here???

Lets see if I got it straight now...........You received a paper copy of a
file? You've canned that in, saved the file as a TIFF and now you want to edit that? I assume you want to scan in this document, maintain all of the formatting, pictures, etc and be able to edit it. Ewwwwwww! I've never used the Office Document Scanning so you have one on me. If I want OCR, I use PaperPort. It's what I'm accustomed to using. A .tiff is a picture file, not text so I'm not sure what is happening to your file. I don't think you can do what you are trying to do but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. If you have access to the originator of the file, I'd ask them to send it to you electronically. Do you know what program they used to create it in the first place? If you don't know the origninator, I repeat Ewwwwwwwww. You've got your hands full. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Sherry" wrote in message ... I may not be explaining myself very well.

help, how to convert publisher files to word?
thanks for such a prompt answer.
my problem is... i'm a teacher and i just made our school yearbook using publisher. i live in the u.s. virgin islands and the cheapest color printing i can find her is $1.50 per copy- ouch!-, so i decided to go to kinko's online, or another printing site where you can upload your files and then they print, bind, and ship to you. anyway, the site i wanted to use doesn't accept publisher files. i suppose i don't have to convert to word, there are other options, but i'm not familiar with any of them. i was just hoping there was a way. thanks for the trouble... amy |
