Sends the plot as a vector-oriented metafile to the MS-WINDOWS clipboard from where it can be transferred into any other MS-WINDOWS program. The plot area of the output is taken from the currently displayed area in the Spectrum window. Parameter lists and the title cannot be transferred using this method.

From the Display pull-down menu choose the Window option and create an additional window within the 2D plot to include the structural formula of glucose. Start a parallel ID WIN-NMR session and load the structure file D NMRDATA GLUCOSE GLUCOSE.WMF) into the ID WIN-NMR Preview window. Copy it into the clipboard with the Copy command in the Edit pulldown menu of ID WIN-NMR. Return to 2D WIN-NMR, activate the additional window and choose the Paste option in the Output pull-down menu.
