I have been sent a word document, and asked to re-write it for a web
page.
It has several embedded graphics. Short of screen- captures, how can I
extract these graphics and save them as individual files?

Tried selecting the frame they're in (I think graphics have to be in a frame) and then Ctrl-C (or Edit/Copy) and then pasting into a graphics application like Paint Shop Pro or Photomagic? Tried double-clicking on the graphic in case it's an imbedded object, in which case OLE will try to load the relevant application (which of course you may not have .... ) A word expert, which I'm not, may be of more help though.

If you use Word (97 at any rate does this) to save as html it extracts the images for you as image1.gif, image2.gif etc -- Simon Child

Oh - and in WP6.1 you could deal with a "linked" graphic where the source file has moved. Try *that* in Word97, too ...

So it is with earlier versions, although I think you have to install the
HTML converter.

Er ... yes - but that can only ever save a very low resolution of what may well be a decent quality original. So - a last resort, perhaps? -- David Pearson
