Default Graphics are becoming distorted when opening in Word


I am having a strange problem.
I have received a clients word .doc that includes graphics and text created
in word 2000 (on a mac running windows).
When I open the .doc the images and border quality is terrible. I have
seen a PDF of the document and what I am seeing is not what the expected
output is.
If I open this document in Adobe Acrobat - it appears that Acrobat converts
the word doc into a much clearer document.
Could this deterioration in quality be coming from the converters? Is there
a way to control this sort of thing?

Thanks for your help.

If the graphic is distorted, one thing to check is its format, to ensure the
height and width scale (percentage factor) are equal. If they are, ou might
also be able to rescale one dimension to achieve the correct proportion.

Thanks - the thing is that the images are part of the word doc and we have
already tried to re-create the document by starting with the images - and
things are not coming through as clear etc. I would think that because I
can see it "close to perfect" when opening in adobe - there must be a way to
avoid re-creation?
Thoughts?
