I know that this topic has been covered in the semi distant past, but
to be honest, I wasn't paying all that much attention and it seemed to
be working fine for me...
...until today.
Particulars:
FinMac 2005b.r1
PowerBook G4 running system 10.3.9
Microsort Word 2004 v. 11.1
I'm extracting an .eps file from Finale, pasting it into a Word
document.
So I do the extraction, choosing PICT preview, include fonts, get the
nonsensical warning about Chicago (which I'm not using) not being
EPS-able and save the .eps file.
Then I insert the .eps file into Word and all is well. On screen I
have a not-too-good preview image, but I can see it. Off the printer
it's great.
Then I go back to the Finale file to change the example a bit.
Then I re-extract the .eps file. Same options checked: include PICT
preview, include fonts, etc...
Then I paste the new .eps file into the Word Document
Now, instead of the preview image onscreen I see a box that reads
Title: VN Opening
Creator: Finale 2005b
Preview: This EPS picture was not saved with a preview (TIFF or PICT)
included in it
Comment: This EPS picture will print to a postcript printer but not to
other types of printers
OK, I understand what it's saying. But I DID include a TIFF preview
(and double- and triple-checked it).
Printing (to a printer) the inserted .eps file is fine. Printing to a
.pdf file, I get the box with text as above.
Can anyone explain what's happening -- or more important -- how I can
get the screen image of the file I've inserted rather than nonsense
text?
Thanks!
