    Hi,

    Could anyone advise me how to copy a map from google or any other provider and paste it into a word document. I am trying to create a "We are moving to" flier and want to have a map of new location on the document. This is a non- for profit company so any help greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks

    In Google Earth you can go to Edit -> Copy Image and then just paste it in to a word document or mspaint application. In Google Maps, click Alt + Print Screen to take a screenshot of just that page, then you can paste this in to word or paint. Hope that helps.

    Hi,
    Alternatively you could try out Mozilla's Ubiquity ... this is brought to you by the same lads that brought Firefox (Internet Explorer) and to be honest it's class...check out the demo found on YouTube:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQDfpw97Tz0
    or read the tutorial:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Ubiquity/Ubiquity_0.1_User_Tutorial
    or check out their homepage:

    It's cool!

    Hope this helps you out....good luck with the move!
    Regards,
