Word incorrectly printing and eps image to a Postscript device

N

Hi

I wonder if any one else has found this problem?

I have found that when I insert an eps image file into a word document (both
Word 2002 and 2003), what is displayed on the screen and what is printed to a
non-postscript printer is as expected.

However if you print to a postscript printer, it appears that the bounding
box in the eps file is somehow ignored, overwritten or disabled.

I have found that if I modify the picture properties (in WORD) to crop, say
by 0.1 - it doesn't seem to matter whether it is left, right, top or bottom
then it works correctly

I would be useful to know if this is a known bug, and if there is a patch
for it. I am currently working on a document with >200 embedded eps images,
and I don't relish going through each one and implementing some cropping
(aside from the fact I may loose some of the image I am interested in!

By the way, a negative value for crop, doesn't fix the problem

Regards

Nick Smith
