Hi Simon, I was doing this: The best way to get the 'graphics' from Word is to save the document as DOCX format, and open the DOCX from ZIP archive program such as 7-zip. Alternatively, do a File > Save As [or wherever Microsoft have moved the function], and save the file to HTML format - which should then give you easy access to the graphics. But, the image quality is good only for the web at 96 dpi, not for printed material. And in the other approach of saving to a zip file, the equations are not being recognized as media objects, so I do not have a media folder that contains them when I unzip the file. Why the equations are recognized when saving to HTM/HTML as media, but not w/ the zip approach is beyond me. . . . Thanks!

This resulted in a "Object link embedded" graphic. With a range of tests, we determined that you couldn't even use the "graphic" in WordPad as it suffered exactly the same problem that you see when printing it from FrameMaker. Microsoft claim that they still support OLE. If they do, then they've been supporting it very badly, as they seem to think it works.
