Gradients/fill effects in PUB 2002

S

Sean

I received a Pub 2000 file from a customer that had a
gradient fill effect of a star. when opened in Pub 2002 it
converts to a regular gradient and there are no features
for shapes, only vert., horizontal., diamond, roound, etc.
Is there any way to maintiain the original settings of the
document and how so? Thanks....

Sean,

Microsoft Publisher 2002 introduced a new file format, so
some formatting can be lost. Have them convert the object
to a graphic. Ask them to select the object, then go to
Edit > Copy, Then go to Edit > Paste Special > As
Picture. Then have them resave.
