Word's handling of graphics on the PC is exemplary in terms of 
ability to successfully rescale and sharply render all the common PC 
graphics formats and allow them to be resized without loss of detail.

The UI sucks, however, defaulting to all the wrong settings when you 
insert the graphics.

So far as I know, though, even Word 2003 can't import PDFs. If it 
were part of the OS, as with Word on OS X, then I expect it would be 
supported.

I'm actually rather surpised that the Mac Word development team 
hasn't done a better job. Are you sure the results are just bad with 
Word's default import settings, as they are on the PC?
