Ken, 1. Convert the FM file to PDF, using settings that will not degrade the embedded image.
2. Extract the page with the target image into a separate PDF. 3. Import the PDF with the target image into any graphic program that can read PDF, such as Adobe Illustrator or Corel Designer. 4. Use the graphic tool to delete the text, headers, footers, etc. from around the image. 5. Export the image in your preferred format. This method also works to recover images embedded in Word documents.

(This is what I was given to work with.) It's either do that, edit it and then re-import it or ele scan in a hardcopy and save it as tif and go from there. -- Kenpo in Atlanta on a Sunday night _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/clint.owen%40craneae rospace.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
