Pasting Graphics

[Babaji]

Any ideas on how I can get a graphic to paste into Word 2004. In earlier
versions of Word (Word 5.1, Word 98, Word X) I have been able to flatten and
copy a 132 dpi graphic in Photoshop and paste (paste special) in Word and
have it show up. Now it is just an empty graphic box -- unless I reduce the
resolution to 72dpi in Photoshop, which is unacceptable since we want to
move up to 200dpi.

Any ideas (other than insert graphic, which does work but is way to time
consuming).

Thanks

No idea in the wide world: This normally works without incident for me!

Word is not sensitive to dpi (anything over 900 dpi will lead to a very
large document file, but Word won't care...)

However, it is sensitive to the colour standard you use: your original must
be in RGB format at 24-bit or less.

Cheers
