Stuart:

Thanks for the links.  The second one looks like a screen capture so I don't
think it will do but the first one seems to work well in the demo.  It's $70
for the business version, but I may have to bite that bullet if I can't
figure another way.  It makes very nice jpg files which you can import to
word and stretch to fit the page.

Regards,

Rocky

Just did a quick search.

While this isn't free, it seems to do what you need.

http://www.print-driver.com/

What it does is install a new printer driver.  When you choose to print to
this,
it will render the print output to an image file.

There maybe a free alterative if someone does a search. I found another one
that
is shareware.
