PUB2: Converting Shaded Object with BorderArt to a Metafile
Q104207
------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Publisher for Windows, versions 2.0, 2.0a ------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= Converting a shaded object with a BorderArt design to a metafile may cause the BorderArt design's white background to disappear. When you shade an object and apply a BorderArt design to it, the BorderArt design has a white background when displayed and printed. When it's rendered as a metafile, however, the background may disappear. MORE INFORMATION ================ Steps to Reproduce Problem -------------------------- 1. With the rectangle tool, create a 3-by-3-inch box. 2. From the Format menu, choose Shading, and apply a solid maroon shading. 3. From the Format menu, choose BorderArt and select Balloons...Hot Air. 4. Note that the BorderArt design appears on a white background around the maroon box. 5. From the Edit menu, choose Copy Box. 6. From the Edit menu, choose Paste Special. Under As, select Picture. The pasted metafile has a maroon background behind the BorderArt design, rather than a white background, as in the original.
