You can't paste graphics directly into text, but you can link them to print immediately following

Question:
Do you have a facility to copy and past graphics or image information into the text portions of the sections.


Answer:
No, Business Plan Pro doesn't allow you to paste an image directly into your text. It does allow you to import an image into a plan and link it to a topic so that it will print immediately following the topic.

However, you can import any graphic as a bitmap (*.bmp) file, Windows Metafile (*.wmf), a Jpeg (*.jpg) or as a gif image (*.gif) and attach it to any specific topic you choose, usually one of the topics in the management team or personnel chapter.

However, you won't ever see that graphic in the bottom window of the text manager. It will link automatically to the specific text topic you're on when you link it in, and will therefore print automatically in the correct order right after that text and before the next header, when you print the plan. The text window, however, doesn't display a graphic.

To import a graphic to be linked to a text topic, first get into text mode and view the topic for which you'd like to link the graphic file. While viewing that topic, make sure you have the topic instructions showing (use the Show Topic Instructions command on the text menu if they aren't). Then in the upper window that has different tabs, click on the Text Manager tab. The Text Manager window has three input boxes, one to set an included table, one to set an included chart, and the third one, which is the one you're looking for, to set a graphic file to be automatically linked. You can click on the "Browse" button to the right of that text input box to go to the file navigation to find the graphic file you want to link.
