Copying one page

Is there any way to copy just one page (i.e. the front page) of a newletter
in Publisher into Word, so that I can send it by e-mail attachment to
others? The ways I've tried, it doesn't format right.

Convert to PDF instead - there's a free converter at www.primopdf.com

Thanks, Ed. I had downloaded primopdf a while back for something else. So
once it's in pdf, are you saying I can copy from there into Word, or rather
that I should attach the pdf file to e-mals?

Attach the PDF. It's much more compatible, less prone to viruses, and
generally more polite than using Word files.

So you are saying "more polite" because anyone can open it? Can they print
from a pdf? Because we are suggesting that they print copies of it (It's a
notice about an upcoming meeting) and give them out to other people.
If so, then I guess I don't know how to print from there.

Not just because of that.

Can they print from a pdf?

Yes, there is a Print button in Adobe Reader. On the toolbar. Or you can
go to File Print. Just like any other application.

Getting back to my original question - OK - I'll put it into PDF, but is
there any way to copy JUST the first page only?

When you're creating your PDF, print Pages 1 to 1. I thought that would be
obvious, sorry.

I'm sorry, too, I should have realized (or found) that.
Sometimes I can be dense. S

Now I have another question. I realize this isn't a Publisher question per
se, but it ties in with my "quest". I've created (instead of that first
page in Publisher) a document in Word and if I want to send it as a pdf
instead, as you are suggesting - (BTW what are the other reasons that it is
more polite?) I have been trying to put it into pdf and not sure how to save
it, what to select, etc., and more important, how to FIND it afterwards to
attach it to an e-mail? Seems like a LONG path to it.

Thanks for your patience!

You can turn just about anything into a .pdf file. One of the biggest
reasons to use .pdf files is that you don't have to be concerned with who
has what software and which version, who has Windows, who has a Mac, and the
files are often smaller.

When you create the .pdf file you can put it where you want it. I tend to
name my .pdf files the same thing as the original file. If my Word doc is
named seminar2006report.doc, the .pdf is seminar2006report.pdf. And I keep
them in the same directory.

If you have trouble finding files, then it sounds like you need to tweak
your filing system. It's YOUR system - make it work for YOU. You could run
into problems if you share a computer with someone else but even that's
doable. Just create your own folders.
