It was no more than a standard bike photo of a type my neighbour recently had stolen from our stair. I will post shortly a description of the bike on the off chance somebody sees it. I see from the NEPN thread though that theft is something of an epidemic at the moment. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292943 Fri, 05 Oct 2018 17:56:42 +0000 sallyhinch 292943@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Very intrigued now as to the picture ... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292940 Fri, 05 Oct 2018 17:41:45 +0000 ih 292940@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks Fimm.

Took screen shot ok and CMD+c to copy but no conventional paste option seemed to work either into CCE, email or anything. I'll mark thread resolved.

If on Windows then easiest way is probably the Snipping Tool (just search for it in the Start Menu). Then save the output as a jpg. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292794 Thu, 04 Oct 2018 16:51:32 +0000 ih 292794@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Thanks both. I'll have a go but I'm really rubbish at this sort of thing! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292793 Thu, 04 Oct 2018 16:42:30 +0000 MediumDave 292793@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Copy the file and change the extension of the copy to .zip</p> <p>FileCopy.docx =&gt; FileCopy.zip</p> <p>Open the FileCopy.zip as if it is a Zip Archive. Have a look in the "word/media" subdirectory. Your images should be there and can be copied out as a normal file. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292789 Thu, 04 Oct 2018 16:27:22 +0000 urchaidh 292789@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Can you save the document as a web page? If so, the image will end up somewhere in the output as a separate image file.</p> <p>Or there's also the nasty option of opening it and doing a screen capture. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=19168#post-292785 Thu, 04 Oct 2018 15:53:32 +0000 ih 292785@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The title says it; I want to post a picture held as a .docx file. Is there a simple direct way of doing it please? </p>
