Can you insert more than one page of pictures

[Sandra Williams]

I have several sets of diagrams (several diagrams in each set). I hav
a tool to produce the diagrams which can export them as tif files (wel
mdi but I can convert) or powerpoint presentations.
I want to insert the diagrams into a word doc. (linked so they'l
update). I can only get the first page/picture to insert.
Anybody know how I can get more than the first page to insert?
Thank yo

Word can't handle multi-page tif, or any other kind of multi-page graphic or
object. It will always show only the first page. To insert them in Word,
you'll have to separate each set of diagrams into a set of one-page graphics
files.

It isn't apparent, but *all* pages (the whole file) are _inserting_, its
just that only the *first* page can be _displayed_. (More precisely,
perhaps, only one of the object's pages can be displayed at a
time -whichever is "on top" of the stack.)

If possible, each diagram should be saved as a separate file & each file
inserted as individual objects. Alternatively, you may be able to insert the
same file multiple times & display a different page in each, but that makes
for a much bigger doc file if embedded - another reason why linking is
preferable. However, multiple links to different parts of the same file can
be a little tricky, especially with regard to updating the links.

BTW - Along the same lines, any one object can't span a page break in a Word
doc.
