Convert a word file to Web page using Frontpage

[Guest]

IN previous version of Frontpage, I am able to convert Word file to Web page
by "insert" a word file to a Web page. In this case, a "clean" HTML file is
returned and all graphic on the Word file will be converted to GIF at the
same time. However, in FP 2003, I lost all images and it means that they
cannot be diplayed on the Web page properly.

Anybody can help?

You need to IMPORT the images.
For really 'clean html' it is best to take the text into Notepad to strip
away all the excess MS code. Bring the text into your page and use CSS to
format it. Add the images you have imported.... All that into tables.
Initially don't make web pages in Word ... use the correct tool for the
best, easiest results.

Save the File as HTML within Word, them import into Frontpage. FP won't
open Word (*.doc) documents.

Better yet, start from scratch and make the page in Frontpage. Import all
the images into the Frontpage web, and place them in the page. Forget the
Word-to-Frontpage thing, all you'll manage to get is more problems and
bloated code generated by an application not designed for web sites (that
is, MS Word).

Try this: Importing Microsoft Word Documents into FrontPage 2003

I'm not sure how it will handle the images, though. You'll probably need to
import them into your web separately and then insert them into your page.
