Hello,

In adobe reader there's a handy feature to extract pages from a document and save them to a new document. Is there such a feature in MS word?

just mouse over and <cntl c> then <cntl v> to paste?

I could do that but it screws up the formatting and I don't have twenty minutes free to sort that out everytime I want to do it. And my secretary always claims she's too busy to do it, which makes me angry cos she then returns back to looking at ebay.

Copy and paste and then go to the tiny little pop-up in the bottom right of your pasted text and then select 'Keep source formatting.'

CutePDF writer is a good little free tool – it works as if you were to print just the one page normally but instead of printing it saves as a PDF. After this you could explain to the secretary what her job entails (mine luckily is internet research)

if you put in page breaks before you copy it, that may help.

Or just save a fresh copy and delete the bits you don't want.

shit manager blames employee slacking shock!
