Default BUG: Wd2007 Saving as web page with drawings- Horrible pixelation

Hope its fixed ASAP. This is kind of a showstopper for us.
Not sure how fast it will be fixed...It could be a while.

Thank you for taking the time to check it out with me.

No problem. Thanks for the repro steps!

Anyway, regardless of anything, all the contents of a Drawing Canvas as well
as Autoshape Callouts get converted into a pictures... so the problem
manifests itself in them too. It's a big problem!

As workarounds for the time being: Any chance you can use PDF instead?
Or designate one computer with 2003 as the one from which the files are
saved as web sites?

I repro it now. It seems to be a general bug in the image creation
algorithm. The PDF algorithm, which is different from the image one,
creates the textbox just fine.
Thanks for catching that! I'll send it over to MS and see what they say.

And here's an example. http://www.cflashsoft.com/temp/wd07callouts.htm
Change your textbox to be inline or otherwise use a callout and tell me
now
you can't repro.

Aha!... you didn't change the textbox to be inline with text
(right-click
Format Textbox). I just discovered if I leave the textbox as a floating
textbox, the problem doesn't manifest itself.

However, it does manifest itself with floating Callouts.

These are Word textboxes... either when placed in a Drawing Canvas
or
inline
with text... it doesn't matter. It's also easy to reproduce. Just
create a
new document, Insert, Text Box. Type some text. Save As Web Page
(Filtered)
(see P.S. in original post). Word 2003 (and prior AFAIK) saves them
beautifully... Word 2007 destroys them.
Sorry, I don't repro this. I made a text box, added some text and
saved
it as webpage and webpage filtered. Then I looked at the page in
Firefox. It looks perfectly fine.

What do you mean by "It looks perfectly fine?" Can you post a screen
shot
or at least the resulting GIF that Word creates of the textbox (it's
put
in xxxx_files subfolder).
