Auto-picture compression is not available in Office 2003

[Harry Theodore]

Auto-picture compression is not available in Office 2003 when you
shrink/enlarge the picture. Before you print, compress the picture as
printing compression to smoothen the enlarged pixels. For taking the picture
from the office application (ex. Word) to Microsoft Paint, compress the
picture as web/screen compression to have the image shrinks when you paste in
Microsoft Paint. If doesn't shrink/enlarge after such compression, take a
screenshot by pressing PrtScr button and paste on Paint. Then, cut out the
shrinked image you've taked from the screenshot and open another Paint Window
to paste it. And there it is.

Hi Geoffrey,

If you're in Word 2003 check to see that the 'zoom' setting within Word is at 100% and then check the page in File=>Web Page
Preview.

The settings in Word for
Tools=>Options=>General=>Web Options=>Pictures
changes the initial resolution of some pictures (those that do not have a pixel per inch setting embedded in the actual graphic)
when the inserted via Insert=>Picture from file.

Compression is another feature. It's function is to reduce the file size (and thus the load time on a web page) of the graphic.
The lower the pixels per inch, the less information to load, but also the lower resolution of the picture when printing.
Compression replaces continuous color pixels in the same area with information that tells the app how to 'fill in' the missing
pieces with the same color when it's presented. If your picture has a lot of variations (no similar color area) then the
compression (file size reduction) will be minor.

Actually I am on here for a friend who doesn't know what to do. She is trying
to publish this document to her web site, but after she has everything in
place, when she trys to save the document, or close it, the program, or
computer shrinks the size of the picture down to almost nothing. What, if
anything can be done about that.
