How do I save as a html document?

[Guest]

Older versions of Word allowed you to save as an html format ready to upload
to web site - new version does not or I don't see you to do it from the File
menu! Now it saves as a MIME format??

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

You don't say what version you actually have, but have you tried File | Save
as Web Page or just selecting one of the Web Page options in "Files of type"
in the Save As dialog?

Hello I was wondering if you could help me out, I'm trying to change a
document from doc.x to html my computer runs microsoft word 97. C an you help
me?

Hi Antonio,

You mentioned what I'm assuming what looks to be a reference to .docX files. If so, that would be Word 2007. If that's the case
Office Button=>Save As=>Other Formats
and choose Web Page or Web Page-Filtered.


If it is Word 97, that version used a Web Authoring Tool, Add-in and converter set. The original tool is an optional add in you can
turn on via the Windows Control Panel=>Add/Remove Programs and selecting the Microsoft Office choice (you'll need your Word/Office
CDs/disks).

There is an updated version of the Word 97 Web Page Authoring tools available from the link in.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/172747

When installed the Save options appear in the File menu in Word 97.

Hi, I've also made html or webpages from MS Word 2007 by the sequence you
describe (Save As --> Web page). I get a webpage, but when I use it in the
actual web and open it in a browser, the tab marks and spaces appear as
squares, and the bullet points appear as question marks.

I tried re-saving the supposed html page from DreamWeaver, but this did not
get rid of the weird marks. How do I get rid of the strange marks that are
not being read correctly in html?

Thanks,
EC

Hi E.C.,

Using Office Button=>Save As=>Other Formats, click on the [Tools] button on the bottom left and check 'Web Options'.

What Encoding is set?

What langauges are enabled in Word and what fonts are you using in the document?

I am having the same problem. I have 2007 and I do not have web page options,
how can I build a web page using word?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

I see several Web formats under Office Button | Save or Save As | Other
Formats.

[Fill in later]

The only formats available to choose from under Office Button -> Save as ->
Other Formats -> Save as Type: are ".docx" ".docm" ".doc" ".dotm" ".dot"

There are no web formats to choose from.

 

[Fill in later]

Nevermind. I just figured it out.
I actually do have web formats to choose from.
Ignore my last post

I have '07 office home/student and I have created a flyer that I would like
to upload into another account (photobucket) but I need it to be saved as
html or jpg and I have saved as web page and web page, filtered and it still
is not uploading!!!!!!!!! frustrated

Hi Bob,

May I jump in here to ask a related question? Is there a way to make a macro
or shortcut button for "Save As web page (html)"? I use this command a lot,
and it was easy to access from the keyboard with Word 2003. Using Word 2007,
it seems to require a lot of mouse work to get to this command. I tried
recording a macro, but the macro is too specific, and contains the particular
file folder, file name etc that I used when recording the macro.

Thanks
Wendell

Assign this to a keyboard shortcut:

Sub SaveAsWebPage()
Dim dlg As Dialog
Set dlg = Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs)
dlg.Format = wdFormatHTML
dlg.Show
Set dlg = Nothing
End Sub

If you want the filtered HTML version, replace wdFormatHTML with
wdFormatFilteredHTML.

I am having the same probelm it does not give me the option to save at html
or web page or anything. I am working from Word 97. Any ideas?

 

[Robert Schechter]

Thanks Suzanne, but what is the difference with Save AS web page, web page
filtered and single file?

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Save as Web Page saves the document as an .htm file, preserving all the
formatting of the Word document so that, if desired, it can be resaved as a
..doc file without losing formatting. "Web Page, Filtered" also saves as .htm
but removes some of the formatting data for a more efficient Web page. It is
still, I am reliably informed, extremely bloated and ugly HTML, however.

Both of those file types save illustrations as separate, linked files. This
can be extremely useful if you are trying to extract pasted graphics as
separate files in JPG or GIF format. "Single File Web Page" uses the .mht
format which, as I understand it, somehow embeds the graphics in the file
itself (just as the Word document does).

Coincidence that I was just playing with these, since Word's Help said
nothing. While it is likely true that "Web Page, Filtered" is also
considered ugly, it DOES significantly reduce the weight (size) of the
resulting HTM document, compared to the simple 'save as web page". In my
case, the non-filtered file was 77K, filtered was 28K (and if I hand code a
really stripped version, it would be around 16K).

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Thanks for the further info.

I can't get my picture to be embedded in my web page. It comes out distorted
or with a square in the left hand corner that says the title.jpeg. I tried
saving as html, htm, mht. I don't know what i am doing wrong. Everywhere I
read it says to make a page in word as usual and then save as web page and
you are done. Please help!

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Is the picture embedded before you start, or is it linked? If you have
copied it from the Web, there's a good chance it's linked. Press Alt+F9; if
you see an INCLUDEPICTURE field code, then the picture is linked; press
Ctrl+Shift+F9 to unlink it, then try again saving as a Web page.
