Pub 2003 Web Design

[mls4077]

I use Pub 98 for my website apx 9 pages. Only thing it does not treat
pictures very well as they are blotchy our pixely. Pub 2003 treats pictures
great but I can only publish 1 page now because of how big the file is. The
whole page seems to be treated as one image instead of how Pub 98 treated
each picture seperately. When the page is on the web you can't even right
click on indivdual pictures to copy them like you can on all other websites
including my Pub 98 site.

I read this is how Pub 2003 works but if thats the case I will not use it as
it is useless that I can only load one page of my 9 pages now. Pub 98 I use
less than 1mb for the website but in Pub 2003 one page alone uses almost my
maximum 10mb. Does not make sense that the new version of Pub 2003 is worse
for web design than PUb 98.

Any help would be welcomed

Your pictures were probably not optimized for the web in Pub 98, and are
probably too large for Pub 2003. The html coding engine was changed in
version 2002. You can either resample and optimize them for the web in a
third party image editing application or compress them and reduce the size
of the your files significantly within 2003. Reference:

If your whole page has been converted to a single image, you are probably
overlapping your images with other design elements such as text boxes, which
will convert them into one big image. Run the Design Checker tool to see
where you overlapped and change you design accordingly.

You are correct that by default MS has disabled the right click, save
picture option. Unfortunately there is no way to enable it.
