  13. Actually, if you do the conversion on the mac, the pictures stay intact but
  14. you lose any special attributes that they had; for example, the grouping of 
  15. a draw object isn't retained.  However, the graphics are there.  I do this 
  16. routinely as the only printing I have access to is on a Mac network and I've
  17. found that it's usually best to port the pictures over in some other format
  18. and then paste them into Word on the mac, it just seems to give better results.

  20. Hope that helps,
