Copy and Paste Problem
Using Publisher 2003.
I am trying to copy and paste an Adobe page into a newsletter I am putting together. When I use either the "paste or Special paste" functions the file transfers to the designated page, however, when I try to save the newsletter file I get a blank balloon from the assistant. The only thing that shows in the balloon is an "OK", clicking on the box terminates the program and the just inserted page is not saved. Any ideas on how to work this problem, I really need that Adobe page, tried converting it to a word file, however the formatting and type faces are lost. Thank you. Mike |

Copy and Paste Problem
Mike was very recently heard to utter:

The only thing that shows in the balloon is an "OK", clicking on the box terminates the program and the just inserted page is not saved. Copying and pasting into Publisher has been known to cause instability - I suggest that you export your PDF file as an image file. If you don't have the full version of Adobe Acrobat, then there are free tools that will do this for you (although they're not as easy to use as Acrobat). GhostScript does the actual work, and is available from http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/. GSView is a graphical interface for GhostScript that makes GhostScript slightly easier to use (although it's still not the easiest application in the world), and is available at the same location. File Export should do the trick; you'll want to use the "png16m" filter (this exports 24-bit PNG files; don't confuse it with the "png16" filter which exports 4-bit images); set the resolution to 300 or 600. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://ed.mvps.org/ |
