Extract Pics from Excel/Word Docs

This is a simple trick to extract images out of a word document. You can even use this to extract images and graphs from an Excel document. I’m still using Microsoft office 2003, and so i find this quite useful sometimes when i do my work.

Just open up the Word document, then go to file> save as option and save the document as a web page. This will create a new document with the images in a separate folder with the same name. Go into the folder and you will get 2 version of the image, one is in .jpg and the other is in .png.

The .jpg will be the smaller size and the .png will be the original size. If you like to use the original image since it is much larger to view but wanted in different format, just open up your image viewer and save the image in the format that you prefer. For me, i use Irfanview as my standard picture viewer and editor, very light and easy to use.

  6. Imran,

    Interesting trick man.

    However, for those of who can afford it, use SnagIt! It’s a screen capture program and is fantastic whenever you need to capture anything on your LCD screen into pix.

    I’ve been using it a while now at work and people get pretty impressed with what I did. :)
