Anyone know how to get images from a Word document into a regular image file?

See, I have these Word Docs that contain images that I need to be in a regular image file (.jpg or whatever). It doesn't work by dragging and dropping...:(

Anyone know how?

I've tried google, but I really don't think that one needs to pay for something so mundane...really? There's gotta be something free out there, or a manual way.

You should be able to right click and cut and paste them into whatever program you've got for images - photoshop or even MSPaint.

Oye, yes I can do that. But this is like 200+ images we're talking about...

...Although I guess it's a good start. I didn't thought of that. I'm stupid...

(I've been doing that for my video production but I didn't figure out to apply it here)

you could try saving the word file as an html page and look in the files folder it creates to see if it puts the images in there as jpgs seperatley (if that makes sense)

html file is a good idea, if that doesnt work then you could get firefox, and get image downloader extension, and save every image from the document to a folder, nifty tool.

Ohh just got it!

What you do is open the word document

Save as

Web page

When the web page is created it creates a folder that contains all the images that WERE in your word document (just did it)
