Image and Objects
(Photos, Graphics, Charts, Etc)
You must embed all images and objects. Linking
must NOT be used. Also, when saving your image from the source application, do NOT use Quicktime compression.
- A good way to insert a picture is to use the “Insert
Picture from File” button on the Picture toolbar or the “InsertàPictureàFrom File…” menu command. Be sure to click the
“Insert” button without clicking the down-arrow on that button.
- A good way to insert an object from a file is to
use the “InsertàObject…” menu command. Choose the “Create from File” option and do
NOT checkmark the “Link” option.
- If you “copy” an image or object from another application
such as Microsoft Excel, you should use the “EditàPaste Special…” menu command. Make sure “Paste”
is selected instead of “Paste link”. In the list box, if there
is an option that includes the word “Object” in the name, choose
that. Otherwise, choose “Picture (Enhanced Metafile)” if available.
- If you use another method of including an image
or object, do NOT use or enable any option that includes
the word “link”.
You should limit your images to the following file
formats as the use of any other format may result in the image
being not able to display:
- Enhanced Metafile (.emf)
- Graphics Interchange Format (.gif)
- Joint Photographic Experts Group (.jpg)
- Portable Network Graphics (.png)
- Windows Bitmap (.bmp, .rle, .dib)
- Windows Metafile (.wmf) graphics
