JPEG2000 image in Word 2010

Question

Can I insert a JPEG2000 image to a Word 2010 file.? If yes then how?

Answer 1

Hi DevyaniB,

Do you want to programmatically or manually insert the image into the Word 2010 document? If you want to manually insert the image, you can insert via Insert Tab->Illustrations group->Picture . 

If you want to programmtically insert the images, please refer to the following code snippet:

Sub Macro1()
    Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture FileName:= _
        "C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures\Chrysanthemum.jpg", LinkToFile _
        :=False, SaveWithDocument:=True
End Sub

Hope this can help you and just feel free to follow up after you have tried.

Best Regards,

Hi Bruce,

I also want to insert Jpeg2000 image in word 2000 and that too manually. I tried the steps which you mentioned but after inserting and clicking OK, i am not able to see my jpeg2000 image.

It is showing as X with text "This image cannot currently be displayed"

My jpeg2000 images are with extension .jp2"

Thanks,

Vishal

I don't see that jp2 is a format that Word 2000 recognizes.  Try converting it to jpg.  See this reference article:

Answer 4

Agree that jp2 is not recognized by Word 2010 (Sorry i wrote 2000 in my last note)

Does that mean that Office 2010 doesn't support JPEG2000 formats?

Answer 5

AFAIK there is no support for that image format in any version of MS-Office.
