Bob,
To throw in my similar problem with Jacques. I want to PASTE SPECIAL - LINK
a PowerPoint slide into Word (both 2007) document. However, something with
several boxes and graphics on it, comes in terrible. There all all kinds of
light lines spread out about every 10 - 20 px.
If I Paste Special as an image, it renders just fine. But then I lose the
capability of editing in PPT and then updating in Word.
"How do I want to work today?" --- Easier.

Hi Jacques,.
Word 2007 is as finished as it's likely to get :)
Each of the Office 2007 series apps has different strengths and feature sets that it plays to. The Powerpoint (graphics) folks
basically own the Escher engine and a number of the features are specific to the type of output one might expect in presentations.
Can you explain in what way the separation of features would prevent you from being able to prepare a Word document? From your
description folks are used to working in Powerpoint to create diagrams, etc and you are still able to create and edit content in
Excel and Powerpoint and use the new features available in those apps then either link to it from Word or paste the result into Word
(there are folks who prefer to have that method as they don't want others being able to edit the results they created) or you can
insert a Powerpoint slide object in Word if there is some compelling reason to be able to edit the same content in two different
apps. It's not much of a difference than using an outside graphic app for creating graphics that you can use in Word.
Word 2007 also has features that Powerpoint and Excel can not support for direct editing except through object linking, which can
include inserting a Word object in a Powerpoint slide, for items such as Word 2007 Math\Equation editing in Powerpoint.

Thanks Bob,
I understand all that, Escher2 is fantastic. But until it's fully supported,
we just cannot use the not-yet-completed Word 2007 for our publications in
our research institute...
Do you have a guess on how long we will have to wait for a patch or an
upgrade?
Again, thanks a lot for your answers...
