Solve : Word drawing problem?

Answer»

I have a word drawing in portrait orientation. Please help me rotate the drawing to have landscape layout orientation(90 degree clockwise), but without loosing the scale and STILL having each line or box of drawing as a separate component. File is attached.
Big thanks in advance.

[recovering space - attachment deleted by admin]I don't think your image can be rotated because it's too large to fit on a page if rotated. I pasted it into Paint and rotated it. The file is attached. That might be an option for you.


[recovering space - attachment deleted by admin]Thanks a lot for your attention. However that's not quite what I expected to get. Actually I knew that befoe. If you look on the message again you'll see that I need every line as a separate object. Thanks again.When you say you "need every line as a separate object", you mean you can't use the whole image after conversion to a .jpg file, right?

Well, as I SAID, the overall image, in it's present size, does not fit in a normal Word Window in a HORIZONTAL orientation. So, I don't know what else to suggest.What I need is: imagine a printout of this drawing on a normal A4 (which is what it is right? The page setup has A4). And now rotate the printed hard copy to a landskate. So when I open the word document, I want to see the same drawing in landscape like I would have done with hard COPIES. If it fits vertically on A4 portrait, it must fit horizontally exact the same way on A4 landscape. hey gev have a look at the attachment and see if this is what you wanted mate.

[recovering space - attachment deleted by admin]I forgot to ask...Do you still want to be able to open the document in word soley to print it out or did you want to be able to edit it?

Cos the way I did it I don't think you will be able to edit it.Hi Davidoc.
Thank you too.
But, yea, that's the case. I will still need to be able to edit it. Sorry.
ok mate will try again and see what I can doI tried copying it into PowerPoint and into Publisher, rotating it, and then copying it back into Word. But, in both cases, the image loses it's original character and can no longer be EDITED in the manner you want.have tried exactly the same as you soybean...and I'm afraid that there is no way I can think of that will work....Sorry gev mateThanks again for your efforts man.
Actually I think I found a relatively feasible way to do it (by PowerPoint).
It takes a bit editing though.
I'm glad you have found a way mate.....Good luck
