Copying portion of page

[Joy]

This was discussed a while back, but for some reason, I can only access back
to June. There was some sort of little "camera" icon in Publisher, and I
have used it (to copy only part of a page), but now I cannot find the icon.
How can I restore/find it? (I have MS Office 2003). TIA

Aside from simple copy/paste...I'm
not aware of any component in
Publisher like you are describing.
I would like to know how to use it.

The following excerpt is from Pub
2003 Help:

===
To make a copy of the active window,
press ALT+PRINT SCREEN.

To copy the entire screen as it appears
on your monitor, press PRINT SCREEN.
===

The freeware Gadwin PrintScreen has
served me well for screenshots but many
users say SnagIt (though not free) is
excellent.

OH! Yes, that's what I was thinking of. Thanks! I did figure out that a
simple highlighting of a portion, then right clicking for Copy and Paste
worked in Publisher. Been a while since I tried to copy anything from
Acrobat Reader in a pdf file, that's why I forgot.

Thanks for the archive URL, John.

As you will see, I was mistaken, and what I had in mind, as Steve pointed
out, is in Acrobat Reader, not in Publisher. I think my confusion was
because pdf files are sometimes discussed in Publisher.

Thanks, Don, this looks quite handy.

You'll see in my other replies, that I was thinking of an icon in Acrobat
Reader, rather than Publisher.

You're welcome.

Forgetting stuff is allowed )

I don't even know what I had for lunch.

One of the reasons I answer some posts is so that I can see my name in my
