Word / RTF export formatting issues - image and table sizes

Post by tika-tika »

A tip and a question about exporting to Word:

TIP:
One thing I found exporting to MS Word is that images re-scaled themselves. I noticed two things had to be done to avoid this problem: a) I had to check "image causes wrap" in the Image dialogue box and b) (oddly) I had to add an image title. Doing these two things made exporting the images work fine. If either of these two things were not done, the image would not export correctly.

QUESTION:
My tables have a similar scaling problem- some of them go beyond the page border in Word. Any suggestions?

Very timely tip! I'm working on an article that will include many images. It needs to be exported to Word, too. Knowing this should save me and the editor some additional hassle.

Thanks!
