MS Visio .. Can you make a Jpg Photo out of a Visio Page ??

[gtrclive]

I have done a Full wiring loom for a Ultima on Visio.

My problem is I want to Post this on the Forum, if I could make a Jpeg Image of the finished Item, then it would be easy... Is it possable ????

You should just be able to select the 'save as' option on the file menu, and then at the bottom of the dialog, change the type to save as to .jpg and you should be sorted.

Tried that but Jpeg doesn't come up in the list just the following :-

Drawing
Stencil
Template
XML Drawing
XML Stencil
XML Template

Have no Idea what any of them mean... Computers not realy my thing....

can you just have it on your screen, then do a screen shot?

anyway, text/graphic images are better as .gif

You arent looking far enough down the list. To the right of Drawing, stencil etc (in save as)you will see a vertical scroll bar with an up arrow at the top, down arrow at the bottom. Hit the down button and scroll down you will find JPG near the end of the list.

I've just looked at Visio and this is right. You need to scroll further down the list

On the file extension drop down list , click it so the list drops down. whilst in this state type in a "j" and it should be the first one selected.
