Converting bitmap to jpeg
|
hi there
I downloaded HelenMk s tutorial on improving worksheets and I must say its great, but when it comes to technology, Im terrible.
Im trying to convert what I think are bitmap images(google images) to jpeg images. I have to open my paint application but dont know what that is or if I have one. Can someone help me out with it? Im using microsoft 2003
thank you so much!!

I can�t help you with that. So soryy!
Try to arrange your pic on a page in Word and then press PrtSc (print screen) on your keyboard. Then go to Paint and in the �Edit� button press �paste�. Select the area you want, cut & paste back to word.
Maybe that helps!

To check if an image is in bitmap format:
Right click the image file. > Click Properties. > Information included on the displayed page includes the file type. From here, you will be able to see clearly whether the image is a bitmap or not.
Bitmaps occupy far more space than jpegs. I would advise you to convert all bitmaps to jpeg format before using them in your documents.
Good luck with your worksheets!

I also suspect it may be one of The Frog�s secrets - but I haven�t checked....
