Size of exported Report (wmf)

[fischerg]

Hello,

I created a report with a certain size (e.g. 6cm x 10 cm).

Then I export it as a wmf-file to use it in MS Word. When I import the wmf-file in word, the size ist bigger than the 6x10 cm?

Can anybody tell me why? Or what can I do to influence the size of the wmf-file.

Thanks

Gabriel

Hello fisherg,

The WMF format is a vector format and - as far as I know - does not offer the option to include size information when exported.

Basically, any page size information you enter in DIAdem will be ignored when you export the report to a WMF file (since the WMF format does not support size information).

You will have to set the size of the image after importing the file to WORD (by right-clicking on the image and selecting "Size").

There is an example included in DIAdem that shows how to automatically export images to WORD, and it uses a WORD template (with predefined sizes) to create the effect you wish to achieve. Check in HELP > Examples > Examples > Creating Scripts > Using interfaces > "Controlling Winword with OLD from DIAdem "

I hope this helps. Ask if you have additional questions,
