	Is there a way to convert these into Word ? I have been sent 3 which are 10% and can be enlarged to read but I cannot print them

Or if you just want to print the files you could try importing the images into Word and enlarging them to a suitable size, then printing the Word document. Or again, the later versions of MS Paint will handle jpeg images and you should be able to print from there.

	If you specifically want it in Word, than right click without opening and copy (or select all and copy from whichever picture viewer). Paste into word and resize by using the 'handles' (very techinal term!!).
