MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / October 2006Size + format of image selected in web pubicatication, how to ?
Please explain how I can determine the format and file size of any image which I select in my Publisher website. After selecting the image, I don't get the option "properties", even with right click. The objective is to make sure that each image is a jpeg, not something else, so it can easily be read by Internet browsers. Hope somebody can help, Geoff Tyson You didn't mention which version of Publisher you are using, but if it is Pub2003 then right click is disabled by default, and there is no way to enable it. Furthermore if you do a Publish to the Web, to a folder on your computer and look in the index_files folder that is part of the HTML output, you will notice that all your images are copied in a variety of formats and quality, including jpg, png and gif. Your only control is to go into Tools > Options > Web tab uncheck "Rely on VML.." and "allow PNG...", and this will minimize the issue, but you will still get PNGs on occasion. Bottom line, you have little control over what Publisher will do with your images if you insert them into your Pub doc. You should optimize the image in an image editing program before you insert them, and you should plan on compressing them. Reference: "Compress graphics file sizes to create smaller Publisher Web pages": http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011266301033.aspx The only way to have complete control is to import the images.

I will do as you say and, in future, at least keep the original (edited) images in another file so I can get at them properly. It is no wonder that I received a poor response from a website designer when I gave him the disk. He is going to have to earn his crust. Many thanks again, Geoff Tyson > You didn't mention which version of Publisher you are using, but if it is > Pub2003 then right click is disabled by default, and there is no way to [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] > > > > Geoff Tyson Dear David F, Thank you very much for such a prompt reply – you work very late at night! I will do as you say. In future I will keep all the (edited) images in a separate file so that I can get to them properly. No wonder I met with a mixed response when I asked a local website designer to put my Publisher website onto the Internet. He wasn't very impressed with the fact that I had used Publisher but I did not really understand why not.
