Hi Richard,
I apologize for being so vague. FM is saving my files, but they are being saved with a dot and a number after the file extension, rendering them unrecognizable by Windows the next time I try to open them.

So what's the problem? It said the file was saved -- was it? Did you open it? Did you find that one or more images were missing, or what?

If there are missing images, what kind? Imported by reference, embedded, or OLE objects? Did you try re-importing them?

If the problem images are OLE objects (linked or embedded), my advice is don't use OLE. If you need images that are in a format for which FM doesn't have an import filter (like Visio files), print them to the Adobe PDF printer (aka Distiller) and import the resulting PDF.

If that's not the problem, you'll have to explain just what you need help with... :-}

Richard
