Inability to copy image to clipboard
Found in Word that if you go insert > picture > from file, then browse
for your pic, it seems to work just fine. Try that.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Inability to copy image to clipboard
I have a .tif file in GIMP. I select the image (right click, select,
all) and then I copy it to the clipboard (right click, edit, copy). In
Microsoft Word, I paste the image (edit, paste). The previous contents
of the clipboard gets copied, not the image. This is a recent problem -
in the past I was able to do the above. I can copy from GIMP to GIMP, I
can copy from Paint to Word, I can acquire a selected image from Paint
into GIMP, and I can copy from Word to Word. This seems to confirm to
me that the clipboard mechanism in my Windows installation seems to be
working. Have any users encountered issues with copying to Windows?
Should I handle this as a GIMP problem, or should I be contacting
Microsoft for support of Windows?
