Does anyone have any adivce for copying & pasting schematics into MS Word? I have tried using CTRL+C & CTRL+V, as well as 'Paste Special ...' in Word, but I always get the schematic inside a huge border, which means that the schematic cannot be resized properly.

I also seem to have a problem printing. I can print from other applications (so I know my dongle isn't causing a problem) but not Genesys.

By the way, I'm using 2003.10

Cheers,

Mike.

I noticed the cut-paste issue with schematics as well. It started with V2003.10 I think. Seems to add a random amount of blank space to the copied schematic.

Anyway, what I ended up doing in MS Word is to paste the schematic, double click to bring up the "Format Picture" window and go to "Picture" tab and "crop" the picture to remove the white space.

As for printing, I don't know..I use a networked printer here.

That's a known problem (pasting into Word), which has been fixed and will be released in the next version of Genesys.

As to the printing issue, you haven't provided any details; your best bet would be to email support@eagleware.com with a detailed description of your problem.

If you would like to get the schematic pasting bugfix ASAP, you might want to consider applying to become a beta tester; it's possible that there might still be a slot open.

That's good to know. What about pasting into Powerpoint, or other applications (I haven't tried this)?

The whitespace issue should be solved for all cut'n'pastes into any application, but it's impossible to test EVERY app, so if you run into a problem with the NEXT version of Genesys please let us know.
