Adding captions to a picture
Outside of Publisher you can add captions , lines and arrows and other
things to pictures using Faststone Image viewer. http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm Dont forget to save the original picture for future use. John G. "Mike" wrote in message ...

Adding captions to a picture
Mike,
Also, you can load a picture into a blank publisher page, place a textbox below it and write the caption in it. Next select both picture and textbox by holding Shift as you select (but don't group them) then right click and choose "Save as Picture". Save under a different name, like the picture name but with "and Cap" at the end. Then you can insert this as a picture using Insert/Picture from File. This saves both as a single picture that will let you manipulate the picture and caption differently in Publisher than just grouping a caption textbox with the picture, since if you resize a textbox grouped with a picture the text may fill differently. However, if you enlarge too much after this save-as-picture operation the text will get pixelized. This is REALLY handy for manipulating WordArt, since resizing WordArt doesn't resize the thickness of the text outline, but if you save it as a Picture first, then resizing is completely to scale. And with WordArt it won't start looking pixelized unless you get really, really big. "Mike" wrote: I would like to add a caption to a picture. I searched and did not come up anything.
