Hello,
I am writing a report that requires me to attach pictures(.jpg format) as references. I am unable to copy and past it onto a word document as I would like to label them as well. Could somebody help me with this? RB |

You can include .jpg's as a picture in Word. Assuming you use Word 2003, go to Insert/Picture/From file... and click the picture you want to have inserted. Note that the way it is pasted is dictated by yr settings. Use "in line with text" (Tools/Options/Edit [insert pictures as]. Labelling can be done either automatically or manually. To do so manually, right-click the picture and choose "Caption..." The figure numbers (assuming you want to have them numbered) will update automatically when new pictures are inserted (if not, press [Ctrl+A]+[F9]).

Use Insert, Picture, From File, not copy/paste. There is an icon that will do
this on the Picture Toolbar. Use Insert, Reference, Caption, change Label to Figure or create your own caption label. There is an icon in Customise, Insert, Caption which you can place in your toolbars. If you are doing loads of images, you can create an AutoText for the caption. ie. Create the first caption, number and sample text (not too much as this will need replacing) Select this text and the Paragraph Mark (this maintains style formatting), Alt+F3, assign a unique name (ie Figure Caption), Enter. Now when you want a figure caption, place the cursor where you want it, type "figure" by the fourth character you will see a prompt for the Figure Caption, Enter and Bob's-Your-Uncle you have your caption. Takes longer to rwad this than to actually doing it! ;-) Best of luck DeanH "RB" wrote: Hello, I am writing a report that requires me to attach pictures(.jpg format) as references.

Sorry, did not read your question very well. What do you mean by "attach
pictures as references"? DeanH "RB" wrote: Hello, I am writing a report that requires me to attach pictures(.jpg format) as references. I am unable to copy and past it onto a word document as I would like to label them as well. Could somebody help me with this? RB |
