App Help text

Hello,
I'm in a situation whereby I need to copy the "Help/User Guide" for the application I am working with. The text is what I believe to be the typical method of displaying the "Help" context from an applications "Help" menu.
This is my problem; The content/text has some screenshots embedded. When I highlight the text and image, copy the material and paste it into a Word document, the image is not shown/displayed. How could I copy and paste the images within the help content?

I have also found that copy/paste fails to get the images. You may want to try a commercial CHM converter. Here's one that converts from CHM to PDF and is reasonably priced at $39:

I just tested it on a relatively large (3.5MB) CHM file from a commercial software product that has lots of screenshots and other images. It converted it perfectly to a 326-page PDF file with all of the screenshots and images intact (well, I didn't look carefully at all 326 pages, but during a quick page-down of the first 100 pages and the last 50, everything looked perfect). It has a free trial, so you can see if it works on your particular file(s) before buying it. Regards, Joe
