Import equation from Word

Unread post by Irina Poddubnaya »

Hi,
I've H&M 7.
When I am importing a .rtf document into Help and Manual everything is getting imported except the equation objects.
I request you to please find me a solution where the equation objects should also get imported once I import a document.

Hi Irina,

Objects like this, and also text boxes and image boxes, cannot be imported. You need to re-create them in Help+Manual using the OLE objects function.

If you want them as objects I think Tim is correct they have to be OLE. If low-resolution images are OK you can copy individual items from Word and paste as jpeg, or you can save Word as HTML and it will create images automatically in the output folder.
