I have some text-box notices (could also be ads) that I just copy/paste from
one publication to another. No special saving as an image or anything. I've
been doing it in Pub07 & I'm pretty sure I did the same thing in Pub03 &
maybe even before, as it's a notice I repeat every year a couple of times &
have been for many years. I've been muddling through with Publisher since at
least whatever the pre-98 version was (was that under Win 3.1?). Leastwise,
I *think* it was Publisher back then (before Pub I used Word, even back
under DOS, but I didn't need to produce an electronic version, just
hard-copy camera-ready for the printer, so I could do some actual physical
cut&paste where necessary).
I don't remember if I've done this with a text/picture combo but it's what
I'd try first -- easy & takes only a few moments to try.
