Don't use Word, try Paint. However if it's too large, you'll still have the same problem since Paint is limited to viewable screen only. The newest version of Adobe has a "select image" tool and "snapshot tool" that may help.
Try this: zoom out on the image until you can see all of it, then pick the "select image" tool and select the outline of the image (it's hard to see the cursor). Then, right click and "copy" then paste into IrfanView. It will be actual size of the original graphic. (What Elaine just mentioned will only copy the size as you see it on the screen, so if you have to zoom out to see all of it and copy that, it will be reduced in size). -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello again, Is there a way to change a PDF file into one jpg? What was sent to me is a poster (a picture with text on it) with a height greater than the desktop window. Therefore using "PrintScreen" won't capture the entire poster. So ingenuity to the rescue and still nothing worked: I tried capturing it in parts, matching each part to the other and making each part a jpg file ... then pasting them into MSWord, one part under the other. That works but then I'm left with three different sections on the MSWord (not one part that can be then copy/pasted). And Highlight/Copy/Pasting the entire PDF file only captures the text, but not the picture part. Maybe someone can explain why *that* happens. Another question is: How does one find answers to this type of question on one's own? .... Harold ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
