pulling an image from an FM file

[Owen, Clint]

Ken,

1. Convert the FM file to PDF, using settings that will not degrade the
embedded image. 

2. Extract the page with the target image into a separate PDF.

3. Import the PDF with the target image into any graphic program that
can read PDF, such as Adobe Illustrator or Corel Designer.

4. Use the graphic tool to delete the text, headers, footers, etc. from
around the image.

5. Export the image in your preferred format.

This method also works to recover images embedded in Word documents.

Subject: pulling an image from an FM file

I could have sworn I saw this mentioned here at at least one time in the
past, but don't remember how long ago, but how to extract -- if
possible-- an embedded image from an FM file. (This is what I was given
to work with.)

It's either do that, edit it and then re-import it or ele scan in a
hardcopy and save it as tif and go from there.
