Re: Inserting EPS file in Word 2003 - no preview

Hi Pupka,

If you use Insert=>Picture=>From File and choose another graphic type do those appear in Word? If not you may want to turn off the
setting at
Tools=>Options=>View
[ ] Picture Placeholders.

If you use File=>Web Page Preview, do you see the graphic in EPS graphic in your browser?

FWIW, Illustrator and Word have a fairly long history of having a bit of difficulty with some of the Illustrator created graphics
apps.

OK, so I checked things out. I made the EPS file. I selected TIFF preview and
saved thumbnails. I've saved it as every version of Illustator from version
CS3 down to version 8. No preview in Word (on the PC) but prints fine. On the
Mac, I get preview and it prints. I want to give the file to my coworkers who
only have PCs. I recreated the art on the Mac and on the PC, no difference,
can't think of anything else to try. >>
