Default Want to save my Word drawings like I can in PowerPoint

Hi

In PowerPoint, I can select objects and do a 'save as picture', which I can then pull into Word or into various online documents.

However, if I do a lot of PowerPoint drawings, then import them into Word and scale them, the text scales too, and they look 'thrown together' haphazardly.

So, I stripped the text from the PowerPoint drawings and saved them 'textless', then pulled them into a Word canvas and added the text there.

Looks good -- looks good -- no matter how I scale the drawings, the text remains as entered.

However -- if I want to save those final "drawings with text", I can't.

And the trouble is, I need to import those documents into a different online tool.

What do you think -- am I stuck with creating my drawings in PowerPoint and trying to anticipate any scaling needs so the text is not a different size for every drawing?

Thanks,
Rob
