Hi Ron-s,
Thanks for the suggestion. I was pretty sure that Word
anti-aliased .wmf files as well. So I tried a test, and
found it was the same result whether I used a .gif
or .wmf. I prepared a quick graphic that shows the
difference between viewing a .wmf screenshot in Paintshop
Pro versus Word. But I don't know how to attach a file to
a newsgroup posting.
that's OK, they're generally frowned upon in these groups
Thanks for confirming this for me, though. I'm not
really a graphics-oriented person, I just happen to
recognize "anti-aliasing" and know that - no matter what
application I'm in - when I want it, it doesn't happen; when
I don't, it does <g>
The only other thing that occurs to me is, that you might
get a different reaction if you "link" the file in, so that
Word is always using the appropriate graphics filter to
display it? (As opposed to embedding, or "insert and link"
that also stores the graphcis data within the file)
