Compressing Pictures in Office Picture Manager

[GTOMania]

I have a picture at 73.8 KB and I'm trying to compress it. I go to edit,
compress picture settings, Compress for Web Pages, it shows an estimated
total sixe of 22.1 kb, I click OK, and nothing happens. Any suggestions?

Nothing at all happens when I click OK. I hit save and the picture remains at
73.8 KB.

You have to Save it if you want the changes to be saved.

No changes when I click OK. So, I hit save and a dialog box pops up and
disappears. The properties or the picture have not changed.

 

[Bob I]

Is the picture perhaps read only? When you hit "OK" you just see an
Asterisk on the picture label indicating the changes haven't been saved
yet.

 

[GTOMania]

Not read only. No asterisk. Clicking OK does nothing. Anyone else have an idea?

Don't top post with a sig seperator. Has the program been activated? Try
Help, Detect and Repair?

Hi Harry,

Does this happen on any picture or only a certain one? With any picture folder location or just one?

What picture type is it and does the picture contain a lot of same color area?

If you start the Picture Manager then use View to turn on the 'Shortcuts...' pane and to set 'single Picture' view then chhose a
compression other than Web and use that do you get an 'Unsaved Edits' listing added at the bottom of the Picture Shortcuts pane (or
was there one there when you first opened it)?

What version of Office and Windows are you using?
