If you are using a spreadsheet application
that supports Object Linking and Embedding, you can link or
embed an entire spreadsheet, a specified range, or a graphic.
You can also import a text, space or tab delimited form of
a spreadsheet, and then format and edit it in PageMaker. PageMaker
has a limit of 40 tabs per paragraph and uses tabs to separate spreadsheet columns.
To import native database files you must
have the following components installed on your system.
The ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) version 2.5 drivers
and its data sources. The PageMaker ODBC filter or plug-in.
The filter lets you import "flat" data files without
relational links or complex structure, and automatically update the links to them.
The Kodak Photo CD is a standard for importing
images. When you import a Photo CD image, the filter takes
into account both image size and the resolution you specified
in the Document Setup dialog box, and then assigns the optimum default resolution.
| Importing QuickTime movie frame |
PageMaker allows you to import any frame
of a QuickTime movie into your publication as a linked TIFF
image. By default the frame is imported in RGB color format
at a resolution of 72 dpi. When you export the file to a PDF
or to a HTML format, the output file will include a link to the QuickTime movie.
PageMaker supports TWAIN, a cross-platform
interface that lets you create a TIFF image, using a device
such as a scanner, video-capture board, or digital camera
attached to your computer and import the image into your publication without leaving PageMaker.
