Photoshop works great for this, it is expensive though. I think PhotoshopCS

Can PhotoShop crop vector graphic files (.emf) and leave them as
vector graphics?

I have found several programs that will crop graphic images, but when
I have them load an EMF file, convert them to bitmaps first and then
do the cropping. I would like them left as vectors.

I realize that this is a non trivial task, or at least a bit more
complicated than cropping a bitmap graphic, as each individual vector
would have to be examined individually, but that's what computers are
supposed to be good at, no?

Thanks

I am writing a piano book in Word (2000). It will have lots of music
examples. I will be creating those images in a music notation program
called Mozart. Mozart can export graphic images in a variety of
formats including EMF, BMP, TIF, GIF, EPS, etc.

I need to annotate these images with callouts, highlights, etc., and
do some cropping and scaling.

I have been using Visio. Is that a reasonable choice? It seems to work
OK.

The one thing that it doesn't have is any kind of image manager. I
will have a lot of little images and illustrations. Is there another
image processing program that will make it easier for me to link the
images to the main Word document?
