Problems with converting a publication to web page

[thompson.jams]

Hi,

I have a 20 page newsletter created in publisher that I'm trying to
convert to a web page.

When I try to preview the web page in IE, I notice that the following
two problems occur:

1. Text is cut off at the bottom of some of the pages. There appears
to be a fixed height for all the web pages, and I'm not sure how to
change this.
2. **Some** Pictures which are up front in the publication are now
behind background items. Others display just fine.

I'd appreciate any help with this! Thanks!

You need to ask this in:

It sounds like you are using Pub 2002, as that is the only version that has
a fixed page length in a web page. The solution is to either lengthen the
pages (File > Page setup), or shorten/rearrange the content. Or perhaps
change the font size, or even the font to a web font. 2. Try selecting the
image and bringing it forward, or change the layout. Word wrap has not
worked in a web publication since Pub 2000. When you switch from a print
document to a web document, you are switching to a different medium, and you
simply cannot format or layout the publications in the same way. Some print
formatting cannot be converted to html, and you have to redesign to fit the
medium.

You might consider converting your print publication to a PDF and uploading
that to your website for downloading if redoing your publication proves too
challenging. www.primopdf.com is a good freebie.
