Just a longshot this, but before I get mired in Microsoft Support if someone here is familiar with the software and can give me the appropriate guidance I would be very grateful.

In my previous version of Word, I was able to produce drawings using the drawing tools in Word but was able to save the individual drawings as .jpg for use elsewhere. In this version I cannot see how to do that, is it possible or has that ability been removed in improving the software?

One (admittedly clunky) way is:

select the drawing(s) you want
copy
open a new Word document
Paste, Special, Picture (Enhanced Metafile)
right click and save the picture jpg

Thanks Owain and Robin, your suggestion worked. JNugent I will try your suggestion to see if it is any different.

Thanks all
My apologies to you and Owain for my failure to read the whole thread
before posting and so duplicating his post. Deplorable netiquette. I

No worry Robin, two similar answers usually mean its the right answer. Although round here some would expect ritual evisceration at least for such a Faux pass.

Thanks again
