Jade uses the INCLUDEPICTURE field instruction which doesn't provide a way to do scaling. The alternative would be use use some OLE magic and include the picture as a bitmap, but that would work only on Windows and wouldn't take advantage of Word's graphic filters. One way to fix this might be to generate in addition to the RTF a VB macro that would fix the scaling of the pictures. James DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
