Restatement of Problem: Pictures downloaded into Word
(in Word 200; Win XP)appeared only as a line square. See
Invisible Downloaded Pictures post from Sept. 20th 5:24 PM
for full description.
Solution Brief: Use Paste Special with the paste
as "Bitmap" option. The Paste Special option is (on my
system) available only from the "Edit" drop down field.
Short Discussion: In Word 97, copying pictures from the
Internet was easy, using the Paste function from either
the mouse or the Edit field. What was not at all apparent
was that the image was copied as a bitmap into the Word
document. Subsequent comporison of file sizes of Paste vs
Paste Special > Bitmap confirm this. The Word 2000 bitmap
is slightly larger than the Word 97 bitmap of the very
same image, but not probmatically so. The Display as Icom
option was NOT checked in the Paste Special field (but
this was the default setting on my system). The above
Paste Special > Bitmap solution works well on my system,
but the key is the Bitmap option. The other Paste Special
options do not work. Thanks to those who contributed:
