CorelDraw! 3.0 Graphics Cropped When Pasted from Clipboard

ID: Q112414

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a

SYMPTOMS

If you copy a CorelDraw! 3.0 graphic to the Windows Clipboard and then paste it in another application such as Word for Windows, the graphic may display with the edges cropped. The graphic prints correctly.

The graphic also appears cropped if you view it using the Windows Clipboard Viewer.

STATUS

Microsoft could not reproduce this problem using CorelDraw! version 4.0.

WORKAROUND

In CorelDraw! 3.0, in the same location as the graphic, create a rectangle object that is slightly larger than the graphic. Send the rectangle object to the back of all other CorelDraw! objects. Select this object when you want to copy the graphic to the Windows Clipboard. This method crops the rectangle object instead of the graphic, so the entire graphic displays in your Word document.
