Hi. I need to convert a large number of User Guide documents in MS Word format which have
graphical elements representing buttons on the device the guides are for. The
graphics are placed within the text e.g. "Press the [image of a button]
button to exit". However, I need to convert these documents to publisher to
amend the layouts for our new company branding and when I do so the graphics
are all laid out on the left-hand side of the publisher document.
I literally have to convert hundreds of these documents and cannot do them
all manually for time and sanity reasons so please, if anyone has an idea of how i can complete this task (the conversion whilst retaining the formatting)I would be most grateful. TIA.
Joe P.S. I KNOW publisher sucks but I'm bound by the software they want to use here.
 
Thanks, but that is not what I'm looking for. I was more looking to there being some setting i was overlooking or sth like that?? Publisher has a specific "Import MS Word" function in it and it still does it badly.
Cheers for the tip though.
