Cannot Copy PageMaker Line Art to Other Windows Applications

ID: Q68859

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

SUMMARY

PageMaker version 3.01 uses an Internal PageMaker Format for its line art produced by the line tools from the tool box. PageMaker line art can be copied to the Windows Clipboard but cannot be viewed or pasted into other Windows' applications that do not support the Internal PageMaker Format.

MORE INFORMATION

PageMaker version 3.01 can use the Windows Clipboard to cut, copy, and paste its own line art. The Windows Clipboard will not display the graphics image as it appears in PageMaker, but instead will display the following message:

(Cannot display data in this format)

If you select Display from the Clipboard menu bar, it will indicate Internal PageMaker Format. If a Windows application supports the Internal PageMaker Format, then the Paste command from the Edit menu will be available; otherwise the Paste command will be grayed.
