Does anyone know of any Freeware that can convert Word docs to JPEG ?

Many thanks !

    You could do this by taking a screen shot of each page (Alt+Prnt Scrn), pasting into Paint (Ctrl+V) and saving as .JPEG.

    if you want the document to be read only i would sugest making the file a pdf, much more suited to documents.

    openoffice amongst other apps will do that for you

    Both are good solutions but easiest is probably a screen grab.

    I use Gadwin PrintScreen, and oldie but a goodie, and it's free.

    Just install it, hit the print screen button, highlight the part of the screen you want and it will capture it as a pictuire file. .jpeg, .gif almost any pictue format you want.

    Many thanks for all the suggestions.

    I should perhaps have put a bit more detail of what I was trying to achieve. I have a load of photos in Word docs which I want to edit in Photoshop Elements.

    The Gadwin PrintScreen seems to do all I need - once I'd taken 'F Lock' off, that is !

    From Word right click the picture then copy then paste into Photoshop Elements.
