colored fonts in tables imported from excel pasted special as pict

[Joao Cal]

Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to have the imported tables from
excel pasted as picture without being transformed to black and white tables.

I always thoutgh it wasn't possible but this mornig something happened and
it alowed to have colored fonts. But then after closing and opening all the
documents it was the usual B&W.

I know that if i choose paste special as bitmap the problem goes solved, but
bitmap has a bad definition.

PS: I'm using office 2000

thanks

Hi Joao,

in Excel, hold the Shift key and choose Edit from the menu. "Copy" will
have changed to "Copy picture". In PowerPoint, use Edit - Paste special.

Kind regards,
Ute

Joao,
Ute's suggestion is a good one. Another way you can do it is to install the
drivers for a color printer. Before you do the copy/paste of the chart
picture, change the default printer to the color one. You don't actually
need to have a color printer available, you just have to have the drivers
there and selected.

Thank you very much,
That worked also. Actualy I have a colored printer here in the office but it
was not the default one. Know I've changed permenentely the color printer to
the default.

I'm very glad with both the sugestions and quiqkness ok the replys.

Sincerly,
