transcribing from Jpeg to Word need to have 2 programs open
I am transcribing from a JPEG into a Word Doc. how do i have them working as
a split screen so i can read from one and work on the Word one? I find it very clumsy to have to keep clicking on the JPEG, read what i have to type next and then type it. Its quite a long doc to transcribe. Any help would be appreciated. Liz |

transcribing from Jpeg to Word need to have 2 programs open
Easiest method: Use a split screen and keep both up at the same time.
Not as easy method: Open Paint Open your .jpg file. Save it as a .tif. Close file. Open Microsoft Document Imaging Open your .tif file Click on the icon that looks like a piece of paper and a blue W. This will attempt to "read" the text. You MUST proof-read very carefully. The worse the .jpg, the worse the conversion will be. 1's look like I's, O's like 0's, And those are the easy ones to spot. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "fireopal" wrote in message ...

transcribing from Jpeg to Word need to have 2 programs open
Windows have three states: maximized, minimized, and restored. This is
controlled using the _ and box icons in the upper right corner of the window. If you see two overlapping boxes, the window is maximized. If you see a single box, the window is in the "restored" state and can be resized. You can drag the sides & corners to resize any non-maximized program window as desired. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word Bible Blog: http://word.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "fireopal" wrote in message ...

I hate to be retro, but the easiest way to do this is to open the JPEG, hit
Ctrl-P, and then pick up the hard copy off your printer and set it on your document stand next to the computer. Then read from the hard copy and type.
