Graphic to report/word

[Scirocco]

Hi there.

One question for you guys and girls offcourse,
We would like to put some graphic screen captures in a word based report. To prevent the file to get to bog we would like to export the screen capture as a .GIF file instead of a .BMP file. Can any one tell me how this could be done, or at least tell me then that it is not possible

Thanks in advance,

Hans

Well this is how I would do it...

Arrange your Graphics Display Window to show the image you want.

Select: Operation - Graphics Display Window - Screen Capture To - Clipboard.

Then open Microsoft Photo Editor (or similar program).

Select: Edit - Paste as New Image.

Finally Save As... and select .gif as the file type.

Then you can insert it into a Word document.

Works for me!!

I would only point out that many program can make this conversion for you. I would most likely use microsoft paint, and I think Imaging can do it as well. Almost any software that can work with images will allow several formats you can save to. HTH

This is the best one that I have found.

Snagit is a real good option too.
