Linking clip art text to doc
Gav 27.05.2006 12:44:01
Hi,

Does anyone know how to link clip art text to a web page as when I try to
save it as a pic then insert the pic then it loses loads of resolution /
quality.

Thanks in advance

There are different ways to accomplish that, so I'll ass-u-me for
now, you're using Insert, Picture? Especially since you
mentioned no operating system or versions, etc. etc..

At any rate, when you get the dialog box to choose the clip to
insert, check the Insert button in the lower right and notice it
has a down arrow. Click that down arrow and you should have a
choice there to Insert As Link instead of just Insert.

Remember, it's a link, though. Moving the document or the
artwork will break the link and all you'll see is a box with a
red X in it. Where the artwork is w/r to the document must
remain for it to continue to work.

Actually I'm wondering why you're seeing any loss in quality or
if this will even make any difference; I suspect something else
is at work here. More detail would be required to make any
further considerations.

HTH,
Pop

Sorry. Win XP Pro and I meant word art rather than clip art.


Any ideas? Thanks

Well, lacking enough detail:

If you're trying to use Word to create web pages, well, I
can't help much there. Although IMO it's the wrong way to do web
pages, that should keep the detail without much loss, so I'm no
help there.

Depending on your web page authoring app;
You could do the WordArt in Word, then Save As WEb Page, which
will save the WordArt as a graphic, and then Insert that graphic
into the web page as a link. In fact, while it's a separate
graphic you could use a graphic editor (Not Word's) to
clarify/brighten/contrast the graphic at the same time if you
wanted to.

If you're trying to get the WordArt out of Word with a Copy and
then a Paste into your web page, that's likely where you're
losing resolution. Or, you are resizing it too much. Save As
WEb Page would be the best way to get something to use on the web
page, IMO, depending.

Good luck
