Hi,

Why can't I cut/paste web text/graphics into word 2008 for MAC? It works on my PC (Word 2007), but not my iMAC? The text will paste into word, but no graphics?

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

OS 10.5
Firefox 3.0.3

I think it's a browser issue rather than a Word issue--I'm not seeing
any program on my machine that will paste a picture when I select both
text and picture in Firefox (tested Word 2008, Word 2004, Dreamweaver,
Pages). I don't think Firefox puts the picture on the clipboard, just
the URL for it. To copy a picture from Firefox, I have to explicitly
tell it to Copy Image via right-click (or hold down control while
clicking).
