AboutJean Mornard Expertise I am happy to answer questions about formatting and layout, mail merge, tables, graphics, tracking changes, outlining, and more. I currently use Word 2007, but I can also answer many questions about Word 2003.
Experience I have worked professionally on MS Word since 1992 when v2.0 was launched. For one employer, I created several macros to address the issues of translating a document from a Sun-based desktop publisher to Word and then from Word to ASCII (a VERY specific application). I have created mail merge letters and labels, fliers and brochures, concert programs, investment company documents, large running tables, along with the more ordinary word processing documents.
Education/Credentials B.A from the University of Minnesota
Participated in several work-required training sessions on the entire MS Office Suite, the latest being on the transition between Office 2003 and Office 2007. I have also conducted training sessions on Word and Excel within my work setting.
Question I embedded a tiff file in word 2007 but when I click on the icon it opens up like garbage instead of the art
Appreciate any help
Thanks
Answer Hi Martha,
When I tried it, I was able to place a .tif file in just fine so I wasn't able to recreate your problem. I would suggest you try to convert it to another picture format and see if that helps. Or it could be the picture itself is corrupted, so you might try using another one. I hope this helps.
