Format Text Box
Is there a way to format a text box so that the text you type does not go outside of the defined size limits? e.g. let's say a 2" vertical box can fit 12 lines of 10 pt. Times lettering, the 13th and subsequent lines end up being hidden. Can I limit the box so only what is able to fit is what you can type in? Apologies in advance if I am not explaining this very well...

Word 2007 SmartArt randomly changes colors/themes
Greetings, Question 1: I created a series of SmartArt objects in Excel, I then copied and pasted those SmartArt objects into Word. The SmartArt objects all changed colors. How can I "force" Word to accept these shapes without changing colors? Question 2: (perhaps related to question above?) In Word, my SmartArt seems to lack any robust colorful themes. The themes are all drab grey...

Inserting picture creates too large file size

Inserting pictures in MS Word - tips please!
I am a somewhat reluctant convert to Office 2007 - mainly because it's my company's de facto standard I have to use it. Leaving aside all issues of the UI which is purely a matter of taste, I can't help feeling that the process of inserting and arranging pictures/images and captions has taken a HUGE step backwards. It seems almost impossible to do what was perfectly simple in previous ver...

I've been working with many Coredraw versions for years and alway...
