Problem with Import from Mac
A colleague has sent me documents produced on a Mac, using Office X. I am
using Windows XP, with Service Pack 2 installed. The document text is fine, but the graphics, which are crucial to the integrity of the documents, are not displaying. In a couple of places there are references to Quicktime, the Mac graphics interpreter. I have tried the most obvious suggestions in Word Help, to no avail. I have not encountered this problem before and would be grateful for any assistance. -- Keith Wilson |

WinWord 2002 was shipped without the right Quicktime interpreter, so make
sure your Word (what version?) is completely updated. On 5/24/05 12:01 PM, "Keith Wilson" wrote: A colleague has sent me documents produced on a Mac, using Office X.

You've played with all the View checkboxes under Tools | Options to make sure these aren't linked pix instead of embedded, and that you are displaying pictures, right? -- Daiya Mitchell, MVP Mac/Word Word FAQ: http://www.word.mvps.org/ MacWord Tips: http://www.word.mvps.org/MacWordNew/ What's an MVP?

You've played with all the View checkboxes under Tools | Options to make sure these aren't linked pix instead of embedded, and that you are displaying pictures, right? I think so. I emailed the files to my wife's Apple PowerBook and the graphics open perfectly in Office X on the Mac. They were produced on a Mac but I don't think that should be a problem. Anyway, as I have a PC, I need to get them to open on the PC somehow. Thanks for your input. Although I haven't resolved the problem, I appreciate your assistance. -- Keith Wilson |

Wild guess--sometimes on the Mac, double-clicking to activate the Edit
picture dialog and then closing it can help out. The picture should still be there, it's a display problem. |
