SYMPTOMS
In Word 6.x, portions of a graphic that are adjacent to or touch the picture's bounding box may be truncated by one pixel after you double-click the picture and close it.

CAUSE
This problem may occur when you edit graphics that have been inserted or pasted in a Word document. Drawing objects are not affected. However, the problem may occur when you edit a drawing object that was copied and pasted as a picture using the Paste Special command.

When you edit a picture, Word calculates the original amount of white space in the graphic. Occasionally, Word rounds up the amount of white space by one pixel, causing objects in the graphic that border the graphic bounding box to be truncated.

RESOLUTION
To recover portions of the graphic that have been truncated, double-click the graphic, click the Reset Picture Boundary button, and close the graphic.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Word version 7.0 for Windows 95 and Word 98 Macintosh Edition.
