    Hi



     



    Another way is.......




    Go to ModelSpace
    Turn background White....
    Tools>Options (Select 'Display' Tab)  Select Color, Select 'Model Tab' Select the 'White' from Dropdown menu..Select 'Apply and Close'



     



    Change all your Text and Dimensions to the '0' layer (this will turn them to black) you might have to mess around with the dimensions until they are all black.



     



    Copy all your data
    Edit>Copy>



     



    Start up Word
    Edit>Paste



     



    Crop Picture
    View>Toolbars>Picture>   Select the crop tool...Crop what you need and then select outside the graphic area and resize.



     



     



     



    Eventhough this way might seem to be a longer method to use, I find this is the best way for Copy/Pasting into Word docs with nearly no loss in line/text quality.

    I need to be able to produce a WORD document showing a selection of AutoCAD drawings. What is the best way of getting AutoCAD drawings into WORD? I also have CorelDraw10, Abobe Photoshop, Paintshop Pro7.
    The original drgs are very large so pulling them directly into WORD is not an option. I have produced a WMF but its missing significant elements. Any suggestions?
    Thanks Terry Fay
