Word can insert that picture *as a picture* but it can't "read" the text. For that, you have to use optical character recognition (OCR) software to recognize the shapes of the letters and output a Word document. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
