I installed pdf converter 4 and had to upgrade to 4.1 (vista compatable) I
have xp on my computer. when I open the sample pdf doc only a few of the
pictures show up. The others show up as black boxes. Their website says that
the problem is the way 2007 handles graphic compression. They also say that
Microsoft is working on a patch or fix. I can find no reference anywhere on
MS websites about the problem. Word 2003 works great. Seems like the step up
to 2007 may be a step backward. Does any one have a fix? I like 2007.

I strongly suspect that the problem is with Nuance/Omnipage. I bougth
their converter 3.0 to run with Word 2002 and found that they
thoroughly screwed up my admittedly highly customized copy of Word.
They seemed unaware of how to work with anything but an unmodified
copy of normal.dot. It took major efforts to get their converter
uninstalled. Evidently they don't know enough about Word to make their
stuff work with it.
Good Luck Al
