all on the same page) into power point. It worked for 2 sketches but the
others pasted in distorted or just partially visible. i use onenote 2007,

You may try it with Copy & Paste to some graphics program (f.e.
IrfanView[1]) and then Copy & Paste to PPT from there.

This tool IMO is an essential on any computer anyway

After some experiments I'd say:

Use Paste Special with e.g. Picture format (make your own experiments
with the alternatives).
Standard Paste doesn't work, because it's HTML.
