I had an interesting experience with this problem. I had written a report for my client and he then wanted to write a report of his own using my graphics. So he started copying and pasting. Inside Word 97, he got the micro-pictures as described. He just enlarged them and was very happy. Meanwhile I was nonplussed because I had been struggling with saving all the graphics as metafiles from Mathematica. The metafiles work, but each one takes an unbelievable amount of space on disk: on the order of 10 MB for a single graphic ListDensityPlot of an array about 100 x 100. When this metafile graphic is loaded into Word it causes major slowdowns. My evaluation of the situation is that the micro-pictures are much better! Mark
