I would like to Thank you very much for your help. I would very much
appreciate if you could explain it in a little more detail because I am not
too knowledgeable. Also which program of Office XP should I use?
Solomon

 

[Bob I]

Use MS Paint to do the conversion. MDI is Microsoft Document Imaging.

Paint is included with Windows. Look in {All} Programs, Accessories.

O.K. Now how to I go from there step by step?
Solomon

 

[Bob I]

What operating system are you using?!? Start, Programs, Accessories,
MSPaint.

My question is the original question, I need to be better explained how I
add text to a picture?

Office is not designed as a graphics image editing application. But to
work around this you need to use what you have at hand.

Windows Operating system provides MSPaint.
Office XP comes with MDI.

Use MSPaint to convert the jpeg file to a tif file.
Open the tif file with MDI
ADD the text.
Save the file.
Use MSPaint to convert the tif file to a jpg file.

Thank You. MSPaint can not convert to tif only gif

Actually it will, (also png, gif and bmp)Do Save As. and select tif.

 

[Solkeys]

I am sorry but by me it does not have the option of saving as tif, maybe it
has another file name.

Ok, different method. Do you have a program called "Imaging" in
Programs, Accessories? If So then use that to do what you wish to the
picture using Annotations. This method does not involve Office
applications at all.
