I need help, please
 
Dear teachers,

I �m trying to upload a ws but every time I do it, the format completely changes and what I get are figures hiding sentences and other things that make it difficult to read. Confused I �ve already tried to change it several times, but it keeps happening. I don �t know how to solve the problem. Can somebody help me, please? Thanks in advance.

Have you tried:
1.Placing your images in front of text
2. Saving your whole ws as a jpg

And from one of our members:

Also you can try GROUPING multiple items together so they don �t move.
Go to select objects, then use the mouse to select what you want to group together, whether its a section or even the whole page.
Then go to FORMAT and there you will see an option called GROUP and when you click it, everything you have selected is now recognised as ONE item not many.. so you can move it for example as one thing on the page....(If this doesn �t help the problem you can chose to un group things too)

Unfortunately the option "Group" is not available. :( It appears in grey in  the toolbat, so I can �t even open it. :-(( I �m trying to find out how I can "open" this option. Thanks, libertybelle.

Try some of the other things.

To activiate an image - you need to click on it and then right click.
There should appear a menu.

I give up... I simply CAN �T upload it without messing it all up. Cry I �m not a PC expert, I suppose I �m missing something... Need to read the procedure more carefully. Thank you, anyway.

Are you on open office? I am and the same happens to me! I am afraid there are not many solutions unless you get microsoft office word! Hope it works!

I don �t know if that �s what you mean, but my PC is WindowsXP and it �s Word2007... I �ve been racking my brain and NOTHING works. I don �t want to complain, but I feel frustrated because this worksheet was hard work. Cry

I took the pics out and uploaded it. It is still a bit messy, but at least understandable. I don �t want to advertise the worksheet, but I leave you the link. Maybe if you SEE how it looks like, you can help me. Thanks in advance to all of you!
