If the images are in-line-with-text, you can remove them in one fell swoop
by doing a find/replace, with ^g as the Find what: and leaving Replace with:
empty. The fact that you say they're anchored to paragraphs, however,
doesn't make me optimistic.
For floating images, if the document doesn't have formatting you want to
preserve, you can copy the entire document to the clipboard (Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C)
and paste it as text into a new document. This will strip out all of the
graphics. If you're using Word 2007 or Word 2010, for pasting as text, press
Ctrl+Alt+V, and choose the Unformatted Text option. If you're using Word
2003 or earlier, use Edit - Paste Special.

I have a moderate size document (750 pages) which was converted from PDF.
The original had a screened watermark which was replicated as multiple
image files (3-5 per page) anchored to text paragraphs.
Is there an easy way to locate, select, and delete these graphics (there
are no other images) without affecting the text and without having to
repeat the process 3000+ times to get every one?
