overlapping textboxes

[mazzi99]

Is there a way to save textboxes that are in a layout overlapping one another
as a pic, the way text can be saved as a pic?

Which version of Pub are you using?

Nothing is preventing me from overlapping, however I was interested in
saving the overlapped final product as one image...i.e. if i have a picture
of a hamburger but I want a hot dog next to it and can only find them
separate can I save the two images as one image so I can duplicate it and
make more than one?

Select both text boxes, right click, save as a picture.

Thank you for the answer but do you know how to make the actual text that I
am saving as a picture save clearly...the text is very pixelized and does not
look like the original.

What format are you using? Publisher gives you options when you save as a
picture. Try the Commercial Printing option (300 dpi) and the .png extension.
The text isn't as blurry using .png.

Anytime you convert text to an image it is not going to be as clear and
crisp as the original text. However, follow Mary's suggestions to see if you
can get a better copy using a different format or resolution. Alternatively,
create your images in an image editing program and add the text there. That
is how I have achieved the best results.
