Cropping in Word 2007
Aha! That's the problem: When the picture is selected, the contextual
Picture Tools | Format tab is not displayed. When I select the picture, nothing on top changes. The tabs (Clipboard, Font, etc.) don't change. John Andalusia, AL "Suzanne S.

Cropping in Word 2007
1. I imported the .pdf file by Insert/Object/Object/Adobe Acrobat
Document/File Name. 2. It is not truly a picture, but rather an object. I looked at Publisher 2007 Help and it said when you clicked on the picture, the Picture toolbar showed up. Mine doesn't. I remember that it did sometime in the past. So, it looks like I need to reinstall Office 2007. John "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote in message ... How di you import that into your Word document?

OK, you raised the issue of the Picture. I did insert a picture and it did
what you suggested; the Picture toolbar appeared. So, when I have a .pdf file to crop, I must use RightClick/FormatObject/Picture/Crop which is about the hardest way to crop that I've ever done! Maybe they will fix this in the next version. You would think that if they allowed a crop that way, they certainly would pop up the Picture Toolbar when you clicked on the .pdf. Functionally, the ..pdf is a picture. John "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote in message ... How di you import that into your Word document?

It goes with the four-fingered shortcuts then!
