I may be wrong but I don't think there is any way of copying the logo direct
because the icons are within the executable, not separate .ico files. What I
meant was, you can choose the icon you want for the Start menu item, then
take a screenshot with the Start menu open, and pick out the icon in your
graphics app. That gives you a reasonable resolution image to use in the
documentation.

The various Word icons are accessible from the Change Icon button.

There are probably slicker ways to do it, but since it's a once-off it's
hardly worth searching around for other tools and techniques. Sorry if I
misled you :-)
