Solve : Cannot delete image in Microsoft Word?

Answer»

I have just converted a pdf file into Word format and though all the images are behaving themselves one will simply not comply.

It seems to "DRAW" itself, unlike the other images and if I try to select it these little BOXES come up which seem to result in no effect if I delete them.

I cannot work out what to do. The rest of the images and document and settings have been worked on for days and are right but this image is, I believe, messing up the conversion BACK to pdf when hitting the 'creating tags' phase.

There must be a way to delete an image from a Word document!

I have tried to get around it but there seems to be no way. If I make a template the thing is copied over too. I cannot use a new document because I lose all my settings (it's about 50 pages).

Can anyone help?

I'm using the old word 97 but this should not be the problem.







Can you right-click the image and "cut" it?No, it cannot be selected.

I have had to COPY the entire document up to the point before the picture over to another document, reformat it all again and then copy the document after the picture and do the same. Then I inserted a fresh picture.

It's ridiculous that 1. you cannot delete a picture in Word and 2. you cannot copy over all the settings (not content) to a new document.

Thanks for your REPLY though  .Glad that you found a solution - albeit the long way around

Seems like the one image got corrupted during the conversion.Try another PDF covnerter, I use Tweak PDF converter, it Converts PDF to editable Word fully preserving the formatting of the original PDF.
