Hi Lynn
It seems to me that there are two ways that a picture can distort. One is to try to display it larger than the original picture, in which case you lose quality. The other is to stretch the picture either horizontally or vertically. Double-click the picture, and choose the Size tab. Has it been stretched beyond 100%? Does it say that Height and Width are both 100%, or at least both the same percentage as the original? Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

Hi Lynn
I think you'll have to explain what you mean by "distort". That is, what steps are you following, what is happening, and what do you expect to see? Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

That's a display issue (unless they're printing that way). Updating your
display driver or turning down hardware acceleration may clear the problem. -- Suzanne S.

Office?? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... That's a display issue (unless they're printing that way).

For an answer to that question, you'll need to ask the gurus in
microsoft.public.word.drawing.graphics, where this thread should have started in the first place. Microsoft has made some changes in graphics handling over various versions, but I am not knowledgeable about them. -- Suzanne S.
