this isn't a function I use often and I've used it on a computer with XP and
Office 2003. I now have Vista and Office Professional 2007.
I'd like to add comments, arrows, draw circles, etc onto pictures typically
from a digital camera or already scanned in and saved. Sort of what like
sports commentator do on screen to show viewers someting in detail.
I thought I had previously used Document Imaging for this in Office 2003.
Office 2007 doesn't even seem to have document imaging. I read about document
imaging on the Microsoft website and this doesn't sound like what I used.
Any suggestions? Don't need anytihg elaborate, I'm not creating
presentations or editing the photo. I need to draw, using my mouse in lieu of
a Sharpie or highlighter on a printed page and add notes.
MS Office Document Imaging is included in Office 2007. As with Office 2003 it's an optional installation feature.
In the Windows Control panel Programs list locate Office 2007 and change the installed features to include MS Office Document
Imaging.

Once you have gotten to the list of Installation Options (the individual Office programs, Tools and Features) Microsoft Office
Document Imaging is uder 'Office Tools'. Click on that choice and select the 'Run all from my computer' choice and click the
'continue' button and you should be on your way.
When it's installed, Microsoft Document Imaging should appear in
Start(button)=>Programs=>Microsoft Office=>Microsoft Office Tools

NIX on just using the CD, my Office Pro 2007 was installed at the time I
purchased the computer. I open the box that one would expect a CD and
SURPRISE! No CD is provided, I must make my own back-up CD. That seems really
stupid because I can only back-up what I have. If what I have is incomplete
or has a problem I seem doomed. Or go through something on-line.
Bob,
I'm sorry but your instructions seem to be making an assumption I've arrived
at a particular point. Maybe I'm way off the mark here. I can't get to any
list of installation options and either I'm confused or Office 2007 is
Looking at the Vista 'start' icon on the lower left corner, I left click.
Then I left click All Programs, scroll down to Microsoft Office and left
click that.
Microsoft Office folder opens and I can shoose from
Activation
Access
Excel
Outlook
Powerpoint
Publisher
Word
Tools
If I click on Tools that folder opens and my choices are
Digital Certificate
Clip Organizer
Language
Diagnostics
Picture Manager
That's it, I am really confused by your instructions. I sincerely appreciate
the input and maybe something is not here that should be. Does Digital
Imaging really come with Ofice 2007? I'm beginning to think this can't be
done.
I'm disappointed enough in Vista, then Microsoft no longer provides a CD or
a manual. How cheap can they possibly be?
Thank-you kindly for your advice and your time and I hope you are able to
clarify your opinion.

I'm curious, presumably Office was an OEM version provided preinstalled by
your system builder, that being the case how do they expect you to create
the cd? You cannot backup the program other than by Imaging the entire
system. Nor can you add components that hav'nt been installed.
If they provided you with an Office cd case I think you should call the
system supplier and ask were the cd is, you will need it
PS Your version isnt a trial is it?
You can usually create a Vista installation / recovery cd if a recovery
partition is used in your system, and if this is the case you should do so
now!

DL,
Yes, my Office Professional 2007 Suite was installed as an OEM, at the time
the computer was custom built. Inside the case, more like a DVD than a CD
sleeve, it even states NO disc is provided in this package. My product key is
pasted in it, with the certificate of authenticity. The side package sleeve
gives me a web addres at Microsoft to 'acquire a back up disc'.
On the back of the package it mentions a 'medialess license'. If' I'd only
been told up front.....
I went to MIcrosoft site and paid the $9 for a disc. That's cheaper and
faster than the 'several' discs it tells me I'll need. And yes, I would have
to image the entire hard drive. At this point of frustration I think it petty
of Microsoft to not give you the darn CD. The professionals at the computer
store could have made an error, it happens and people need the CD.
The Document Imaging is not on the list of programs on the Office
Professioanl Suite empy package, I am about convinced this program no loinger
is included.
If not, does anyone ever use a program that will allow me to make comments,
draw circle or add arrows and such to photos without some overly complicated
thing?
Surely others have the need to do the same.........or am I back to printing
the picture and using a colored Sharpie?
Thanks kind folks,
Kelley P

You don't need Document Imaging to make simple edits like those. Insert the
picture into a document in either Word or PowerPoint. Both programs have tools
for drawing simple shapes, and for inserting text boxes or callouts into which
you can type text for comments.
As far as the CD is concerned: There are many (probably too many) different
licensing arrangements for Office and for Windows. Most of them come with a CD
(or are supposed to come with one, although apparently some OEM vendors shirk
their contractual obligation to include it). However, a medialess license
specifically does _not_ come with a CD -- the price is lower because of that. It
isn't a matter of Microsoft being petty, it's just a decision your OEM vendor
made and didn't explain to you.

When the cd arrives you will be able to modify your Office installation to
include those components you require.
As Jay states it not MS you should direct your anger to but your OEM
supplier who failed to aquaint you with the facts - It was that OEM supplier
who chose to supply Office in that way.
