Re: Copying embedded graphics from Word via pasteboard

Why not save all that labor for something consructive.

To save the graphics, take your Word document annd convert to HTML.
During the conversion, it will batch export all the graphics to gifs.
Granted, you'll probably want to rename them to something more
descriptive, but you have to do that anyway.

Am I missing something?
