  • Microsoft FrontPage 2002
  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000
  • Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q208423

SYMPTOMS

When you insert a Windows Metafile Format (WMF) image, the image appears larger than expected.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if you are using older WMF files. Clip art in Microsoft Office 2000, Microsoft FrontPage 2000, Microsoft Office XP, and Microsoft FrontPage 2002 use an updated file format.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, resize the image. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Position your mouse pointer over a corner of the image.
  2. When the pointer changes to a two-headed arrow pointer, hold down the left mouse button, and drag the mouse pointer toward the center of the image.
  3. When the image is the size you want, release the mouse button.
  4. Save the page and image.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
