OT: Using Word 2019

I'm using Word 365. That facility seems to be under: Insert / Smart Art.

Not familiar with that version of Word, but try:

Select what you'd like to save as an image. Copy your selection. Open a new document. Paste special. Select "Picture." or Picture - Enhanced Metafile Right-click the resulting image and select "Save as Picture." Select your desired format from the dropdown menu.

or Save document as web page - the drawings should be exported as JPGs

or Use screen snipping tool to take a picture of the screen.

One (admittedly clunky) way is:

select the drawing(s) you want copy open a new Word document Paste, Special, Picture (Enhanced Metafile) right click and save the picture jpg

Thanks Owain and Robin, your suggestion worked. JNugent I will try your suggestion to see if it is any different.

Thanks all Richard

My apologies to you and Owain for my failure to read the whole thread before posting and so duplicating his post. Deplorable netiquette. I shall drink (more) poisonous liquid in expiation.

No worry Robin, two similar answers usually mean it?s the right answer. Although round here some would expect ritual evisceration at least for such a Faux pass.

Thanks again Richard

Copy the Word document. Rename it to have the extension .zip. Open the zip and check whether the image files is in there.

.docx is just a zip with several folders and files within. Images such as photos are readily findable.

They might be saved as .png files.

It's been mentioned upthread, but just right click the drawing, and 'save as picture'?

Just one small point. Why jpg? That image format is for photographs and is compressed and will create artifacts if you manipulate the drawings, If you can use gif or png (the best option).
