Summary:

Micrografx Designer Version 1.3 uses two graphics file formats that Microsoft Word for Windows can import. They are the PIC format and the WMF format.

More Information:

To save a picture in one of the supported formats, follow these steps in Designer:


 * 1) Pull down the File menu and choose Save As.
 * 2) Type the file a name, and choose either PIC or WMF. You do not need to give the file an extension; Designer gives it the correct one for that file format.

When you are importing the file into Word for Windows, if the message “Cannot Read or Display file” occurs, check the size of the file being imported and check conventional memory. Try freeing up conventional memory by closing other applications; changing to Draft View; and turning the ruler, ribbon, and background pagination off. If you still have problems importing the picture, try bringing in a smaller picture.
