MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / January 2007Text Is Mistakenly Put Into Images
I just build my first web site with Publisher and one problem completely baffles me. Of the 6 html pages, the browser user can select text on only 3 of them. On the pages where you can't select, Publisher, for some unknown reason, has coded them in images rather than text. If you do try to select text on these pages, you just get a circle with a line through it. In addition, the font on these 3 pages is erroneously boldened. I see nothing different on those pages when I'm in Publisher. Can someone help? This particularly is a problem for me because some of my users will be visually impaired - and screen readers see nothing. :-( Thanks a lot. Trish Addendum - I'm using Publisher 2000 SP3. Thanks again. > I just build my first web site with Publisher and one problem completely > baffles me.

Run the Design Checker to ID the offending boxes.  SignatureDon Vancouver, USA > Addendum - I'm using Publisher 2000 SP3.

For example if you use a non-web friendly font, try wrapping text around an image, use master pages, or in some cases overlap some design elements, you can end up with images. Look for these things and run the Design Checker under tools to see if it spots anything else. If you don't spot the problem, post the URL and we'll try to help.
