Created a Logo in MP'03 - Need to eliminate white background

[momon2acres]

I created a logo that is mainly words with a single clip art replacing one
letter.
It is 1 LARGE word with 3 smaller font words underneath.

I want to be able to save this with a transparent background. I dont know
how to import into something like photoshop and manipulate (dont have
photoshop).

Is it possible to save "off the white page" on publisher?
I need to be able to send to an embroiderer without the white in back.

Could I save the text box off the white area as a file without color behind?

Any help greatly appreciated!

=============================
Here's one way to accomplish the task.

Open your project in Pub2003 and save
it in the .png format. (File / Save As / PNG)

Next...open your .png file in IrfanView...
if you do not have IrfanView...you can
download it from the following link:

Download IrfanView
http://www.tucows.com/preview/194967
(get the plug-ins too)
http://www.tucows.com/preview/415586

You can open the .png file in IrfanView by
dragging/dropping it on the IrfanView icon
or open IrfanView and go to...File / Open
and browse to the .png file.

Now...finally...with the .png file open in Irfan
View...go to...File / Save As / PNG...

On the pallet that opens to the right that says:
PNG/PNM/ICO save options....
Under...PNG...check the box...
"Save Transparent Color"

Click ...Save...

The Choose Transparent Color screen should
open...now all you have to do is left click the
white background and close IrfanView.
