Enhanced Metafiles in Word 2003
Outlook Convert 6/21/2007 8:53:02 PM
I copy and paste charts created in PowerPoint 2003 into Word 2003. The
charts are copied in as enhanced metafiles via the Paste Special command.
Sometimes I need to copy up to 10 of these metafiles into one Word document,
which I need to email to several people. The Word doc is huge! I tried
manipulating the chart in Paintshop Pro to reduce the size of the chart, but
no luck. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Why are you converting them into a graphics format? Just copy them across in
their native format. If you have to have them in a graphics format, use a
compressed format such as JPEG. Copy them into PSP and save them as a jpeg.
Then insert them into Word.
