Default Inserted Autocad File Print Poorly

Hi!
In a Word 2K file I inserted and Autocad 2K drawing.
I just made copy/paste and cropped the file to the required size.

I printed it on an Epson Aculaser C4000 color printer and the print quality
was very poor (very faint colors, very thin lines).

When I printed directlly from Autocad the quality was OK. Thick lines and
bright colors.

I tried various formats as DXF, WMF, JPG and TIF directly from Autocad
and/or via Corel 9 but with no avail.

Please can anybody help?

Thanks

Have you tried using the Insert Picture From File... command in order to
take advantage of Word's graphics import filters rather than copy/paste
which bypasses them? WMF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG, GIF and various others should
fare far better.
