Default Convert Word 2003 Docs to JPG and/or TIFF

Jay:

SnagIt worked perfectly! Thank goodness you told me to €śprint€ť it using the
SnagIt printer in Word versus going directly into SnagIt.

Thanks tons!

I haven't tried anything that extreme, and I'm away from my home computer
where SnagIt is installed so I can't try it at the moment.

There's a free 30-day trial download of SnagIt on the TechSmith site, and
you can open the resulting capture in the free viewer IrfanView
(www.irfanview.com) to enlarge it and see what you get.

Don't try to take a screen shot of Word, because that will limit you to the
screen resolution. Instead, print to the SnagIt printer driver and tell it
to save the result as TIFF. I'd consider JPG as a second (or lower) choice
because it's a lossy compression method, where TIFF is lossless.

Do you know if SnagIt produces superior, high quality JPGs from Word
2003 docs? (I have to send it to a local quick print where they are
going to enlarge it approximately 425% to create a poster. The PDF
version is way too grainy when enlarged that amount.)
