When the Copy Options dialog box appears, open the
Preset for drop-down menu and select MS Word 97/98.
Reminder: Although this preset states “MS Word
97/98,” this setting will function properly when working
with all of the current versions of Microsoft Word.
Next, select the Anti-Alias checkbox and press OK.
Doing so will lend a smooth appearance to the items. If
you anticipate the need to reapply these same Copy
Option settings, you may want to select the Use Set-
tings For Copy Command checkbox. Doing so will apply
the options that you have activated within this dialog
box during a normal use of the “Copy” command.
Copy Options (Macintosh)
If you are working with a Macintosh, you will
probably notice that the Copy Options dialog
for the Macintosh version of Canvas 8 con-
tains two additional options. These features
are the Embed Canvas native data and
Embed EPS commands. These commands
are only available from within the Macintosh
version of Canvas 8 Professional Edition.
Activating the Embed Canvas native data func-
tion will embed information that is unique to a
Canvas object. Specifically, should you acti-
vate this feature, all data that has been
assigned to a Canvas object from within the
Object Properties dialog box will be retained;
therefore, if you anticipate a need to retain the
values specific to an illustration or drawing,
select the Embed Canvas native data
checkbox.
The Embed EPS function will assign
PostScript information relating to an object‘s
settings for Color Mode, Transparency Ren-
dering, and Rendering Resolution. If your proj-
ect is destined to be printed on a PostScript
device, you should become familiar with these
settings. Especially, if your document contains
Canvas Objects that have SpriteLayers or
SpriteEffects applied to them.
