SUMMARY

Digital Research GEM files cannot be directly imported into Word Version 5.00.

The recommended method for importing GEM files is to use Word’s CAPTURE utility to capture a GEM screen image. Use the following steps to perform this procedure:

  1. Start CAPTURE by typing CAPTURE/S. This command brings up CAPTURE’s Setup menu.
  2. Choose the D option to select a display adapter and choose 19, 20, 21, or 22 as your display adapter.
  3. Put CAPTURE in the background and load the GEM application.
  4. Execute the command to have the GEM image appear on the full screen.
  5. Invoke CAPTURE and copy the GEM image to an .SCR file, which can be imported into Word with the Library Link Graphics command.
