Word 2003 Policies

Hi,

Can you define in the word 2003 policy, to always compress inserted pictures? as some of our users seem to like having 100mb+ word documents with a few photo pictures inserted!!

Thanks

Under Picture Tools, on the Format tab, Adjust group, click Compress Pictures.

I don't know how you would automatically apply this to every document, but there must be a way

Ah. Dumb users. Your story reminds me of a previous (West Coast based) computer company. The M'ting VP decided to send out a presentation (on new products or something) to his staff - but the alias he copied it to was actually most of the company. His presentation was 50MB (ish) and went all around the world - several times. And he sent it more than once. Aaarrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ...

PS: sorry, can't help with the Word problem - unless you want to remove it from users machines - text only documents??
