copying tables, etc from word into PS?
Hi,
I may be just being lazy here, but before I spend ages reformatting and re-aligning 10 pages of text I just wondered if there was any kind of script or way of importing tables and coloumns, etc into Photoshop from word?
Obviously I can just copy&paste text right in, but I’ve a bunch of data in tables that I need to re-create in PS (I’ve been charged with ‘sexing-up’ our ratecard) and just wondered if I basically have to remake the tables from scratch with shapes and lines, or whether there’s a way PS recognises this sort of thing and converts it?
Thanks.

In word use table >> select table
Then copy this in word and paste into photoshop
The result will be bitmapped, but all your colors and table formatting should carry overIf you want vector quality, print your page to the PDF driver, then place the resulting PDF file as a smart object in Photoshop.
If you will need to edit the table to sex it up, you can open the PDF in Illustrator.
