Jeff, you don't have to rename it. The zip archive can be opened via the 7-zip item that appears when you right-click on the file name. I have a couple of Excel files that have graphics embedded in them. Had no trouble finding them in the media folder.

I have many Excel charts/graphics that I must incorporate into a manual. My SME has provided these graphics in an Excel spreadsheet, with one graphic per tab/sheet. I have Excel 2016, and there is a known issue that Microsoft NEVER bothered to fix in that the Save As Picture option on the graphic context menu (right-click the any border of the graphic to open the context menu) just got nuked/blown away after some long ago updates and never added back in to the menu, so the workaround is to right-click the graphic, select Copy, and then Paste the copied graphic into a blank PPT slide. You can then right-click on the graphic in PPT and the Save as Picture option is there, so I do this and then save the picture as a PNG and it looks just as expected with borders, legends . . . Nothing is missing in the pasted graphic. Now, in both the pasted graphic in PPT and in the saved PNG when opened in SnagIT, the bottom border of the graphic is clearly displayed - you can see all four borders (top, bottom, and right and left sides); however, when I then import the graphic by reference into an anchored frame in Framemaker (2019, 64-bit), the bottom border NEVER shows - I thought that maybe it was just a display funkiness in the source file, but when I save the source file as a PDF, and open the PDF and even increase the magnification, the bottom border is just not showing, so after I save the chart as a PNG in SnagIt, I then have to manually draw in the bottom border over the bottom border that is already displayed and then I can save the PNG and import it and the bottom border shows. Does this even make sense? If anyone has any ideas as to why I am seeing this quirk and what to do about it, I would sincerely appreciate it.
