Karol,

Thanks for the reply.

Well, yes and no. :=)

Following your advise, I discovered a way to do it. After pasting the objects onto the new page, *don't* do the "Fit page to selection" from the object property. That won't work. Instead, invoke the "Document Property" function from the top (under File), and then select the "Fit page to selection" from there. The whole page then shrink down to the size of the object - rather then trying to explode the object up to the size of the page.

Works perfectly. :=)

Thanks for your inspiration.

with lots of empy space. I also realize that

there is

please

point me to a tool that can crop the EMF file so I

can

import it into Word?

Crop can be done via setting page size. You can

select the

object(s) and ctrl+shift+d and "Fit page to selection". That

results in the

object(s) filling exactly the whole page.
