Publisher auto compress graphics

[Jazziz]

how do I work around the automatic compressing of pictures in publisher? I'm
trying to use a background picture on my web page but the compression makes
this visually unfeasable.

This page will tell you how to compress. Try undoing whatever it tells you
to do. (I'll confess, I haven't tried this but common sense says it's a
place to start.)

Thanks Jo, Already tried that to no end. Where it says to download the SP1?
Done that and didn't even see the 'compression' button show up on the
toolbar. Anything else?

Which version of Publisher are you using? I can't guarantee I can help you
but let's see what happens.

Jazziz,

Please explain what you mean by automatic compressing?

Perhaps what you are experiencing is your background picture being converted
to a GIF image? You can't do everything in a web document that you can a
print document with Publisher. In a print document, you can overlap images,
text boxes and other page elements, but in a web page document, those
overlapping elements will be combined and converted to one large GIF, which
you might call 'visually unfeasable'.

To check this go to the folder where you publish the HTML, and look at the
images that were generated to see if your original image has been combined
with other elements and converted into a GIF. If this is what is happening,
then you will have to redesign your page so that you don't have overlapping
elements.

David F, you and I are thinking on the same page on this one.
