Hello Everyone,

Is there a way to copy a page from one 2007 publisher document (with all the txt boxes, pictures and formatting) and add that page into another 2007 publisher document?

Thanks to all who reply,

Ismael

    Hi,  This is a year late more or less, but here is how to do it in MS Pub 2010:

    Open source publication

    Select the entire page (click on the file desktop, then ctrl + A)

    On the insert tab, select Page Parts and then Add Selection to Page Parts Gallery

    Close source publication

    Open target publication

    Create a blank page (right click on existing page in navigation pane and insert blank page)

    Open Page Parts on the Insert Tab and select the source page part you created

    A small box will appear next to the page asking which color scheme you want to apply.

    Voila! Cloned page with formatting in place

    Note: the clone will be grouped; you will need to ungroup to manipulate the page contents

    Note: this will probably only work if the source and target pages are the exact same size.

    Your suggestion helps if you want to copy one page only, how about I want to copy 20 pages from one publication into another I have to repeat this step 20 times?

    Wow, what an entirely unsatisfying answer!

    Why doesn't publisher 2010 allow you to just copy an entire page or several pages or better yet, import the pages from another document the same way that you can import slides from one powerpoint to another. The idea that you have to create new pages and then copy each of the elements (and I know you can copy them all at once) and then paste them sound incredibly inefficient and unelegant, especially if what you're saying is that doing so won't transfer the photos.

    Did you try any of the above ideas? Opening the Office clipboard in both publications might help. Edit menu in Publisher 2003, Home tab in 2010.

    Select all (Ctrl+a) then grouping the objects in the 2003 file before you drag it over to 2010 will help.
