PDF file as a background
I have a form in a PDF file that I'd like to use as a background to a Word
file. Can a PDF file be imported as an image? |

It can, but PDFs imported into Word tend to be *huge*. Your document would
likely be unusable. Convert the PDF to a real image format (GIF, JPG, etc) and use that. "Hall" wrote in message ... I have a form in a PDF file that I'd like to use as a background to a Word file. Can a PDF file be imported as an image? |

Is there an easy built-in capability to convert a PDF to a JPG format?

Not in Word, no. Some graphics apps can do it. You could also try printing
it to ImageWriter. It depends rather on what the PDF contains: how was it created in the first place? "Hall" wrote in message ...

Try the 'printer' driver that comes with SnagIt 8 - there is a working demo.
It will convert the printed output to any graphics format. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jezebel wrote: Not in Word, no.
