Transfer a Publisher file to Word
I have made of a front page for a book in Publisher and want to copy it to the front of a Word document. It consists of a border, background, text and a jpg photo. I cannot save it as a *.pub and transfer to Word, so I am resaving in 'JPEG File Interchange Format' and transferring it that way. It goes across successfully but the text prints hairy edged.
Any suggestions? -- B.Collin |

Transfer the images as images and the text as text.

Transfer a Publisher file to Word
A small child turns to Ed, and exclaims: "Look! Look! A post from
B.Collin !"... I have made of a front page for a book in Publisher and want to copy it to the front of a Word document. What version of Publisher are you using? Publisher 2002 could only save low-resolution images. If you are using Publisher 2003, then make sure you set the resolution to 300dpi. I would advise against using JPG, as JPG format adds the hairy edges. Use PNG, a lossless format that supports high-colour modes. If you are using a version of Publisher that does not support high-quality image export, you can use a utility such as FinePrint (www.fineprint.com) or SnagIt 6 (www.techsmith.com) to convert the file to an image by printing to the special printer driver. Alternatively you could use Adobe Acrobat or PDF995 and PDFEdit995 from www.pdf995.com to export both the Word document and the Publisher document to PDF format, and then join the files together. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://www.mvps.org/the_nerd/ Before reading this message, view the disclaimer: http://mvps.org/the_nerd/disclaim.htm |
