Default copy picture out of word with full resolution?

Hi William,

First, reset the picture scaling to 100% in Word (Format|Picture|Size).
Next, if necessary, change the paper size to a size that whole picture fits on.
Finally, Save the document as a Web Page.

The picture will be given a name like 'image001.jpg' and will now be in a sub-folder with a name based on the name of the document
(eg if the document was named MyFile.doc, the folder will be named MyFile_files), in the folder in which the document was saved.

ENVIRONMENT
Word 2007 SP1. Windows XP SP2.

SCENARIO
I paste a high resolution picture into Word. I shrink the picture to fit my document. Now I do not have the original, but I need
to edit that picture as a high resolution image. I right-click inside of Word and click copy. I paste it into a graphics program.
The graphic is now low resolution.

QUESTION
I know Word has the high resolution version of it. I just don't know how to copy it out. Is there a way?
