Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. It looks like TIFF may be the easiest
solution, as I wouldn't have to worry about printing to a postscript printer
or converting to PDF (when using EPS). That way, I could send the Word file
as is to all coauthors (important for collaboration - i.e., track c

Preferring to stick with bitmap formats (like JPEG, TIFF, PNG) is likely to
give you the jagged lines and other distortions you profess to want to
avoid.
EPS (encapsulated postscript, which handles vector+bitm

There is a section on Microsoft formats, as well as other formats that

That approach will be unique to OSX, upon which PDF is a default format. You
can copy and paste from a PDF document using Preview into Office or iWork or

There's many ways to solve this, but you are close to one already: Make the
