Re: Convert document to word

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Almost everyone has the Adobe Reader these days. There are free .pdf
creating software for those who don't have Acrobat. You can create a single
..pdf file and then the target audience sees your work as you designed it.
Plus it's all done in one step. File - Print.

It might take a bit of effort but you can copy each page over separately.
In
Publisher: select the entire page using your mouse to draw a box. All
the
individual boxes (text, images, etc) will be surrounded. At the bottom of
the screen you'll see an icon that's basically two boxes superimposed on
each
other. Click that icon and all the boxes will be set in place in relation
to
each other. Copy that one whole image. In Word: Paste into the document.
Save the document. The downsides are: You'll have a fairly large file
composed of images. You'll need to do each page one at a time. The
upsides:
People who don't have adobe or Publisher will be able to view your file
without downloading anything. People won't be able to change anything in
your document. You'll be able to quickly create things that Word takes
forever to do.

Hope this helps.

Once you convert it to Word, you defeat the purpose of using Publisher.
Convert it to a .pdf file.

I have a document that was created with Publisher and I would like
to
save it to a Word document, so others who might not have
Publisher
can view it. I am not sure how to do this and would appreciate some
help.
