Word 2008 unscan problem

Post by kga1978 »

Hi,

I am trying to unscan a document in Word 2008 (what a piece of c***) which was created in Word 2004 and it simply doesn't work. BE accepts the request correctly and passes it to Word but nothing happens... I get this error in the console:

06/02/2008 20:58:14 Microsoft Word[124] CGBitmapContextGetData: invalid context

Any ideas/solutions?

Man I hate Microsoft - just told my PI to buy the whole lab licenses for Mellel instead!

Hi,

I'm not to fond of Word 2008, either. Are you sure there are hidden citations in the Word document? If you select one (or the bibliography), does it have the unusually dark highlight color that indicates this?

If it does, then send me the ms (zipped, please) and I'll take a look.
