Val, I did this procedure. I saved the image in a folder and open the CorelDRAW12, also in Word. But whatever program I import the image, 'if I select the transparent option is saved it with that black background. Eda Amorim Val, fiz esse procedimento. Salvei a imagem em uma pasta e abri no CorelDRAW12, também no Word. Mas independente do programa que importo a imagem, ´se escolho a opção transparente ela é salva com esse fundo preto.

I managed to do and it worked. But I have a question about it. When using the option (Clear)it gives me an image with dark background see attached image. Doubt, it is possible to save with transparent background? Hello Eda - Yes, I see your diagram...what program did you paste the image into, that gave you that transparent background in black like that? The transparency came in black instead of clear, I believe... Steve - Do you have any idea? I can test it with different programs as to when it comes in black and when it comes in clear - it is not consistent...I remember sometimes I could get it to work and sometimes not...
