bix red X in jpg files always
[cross-posting to MacWord group for extra input, though I can't actually
tell if Word for the Mac is ever involved in this process] So, you create jpgs in Photoshop on the Mac, but when people try to use the jpgs in Word on Windows, all they see is an X? Is that right? Your post is not entirely clear. Are they copying and pasting the jpgs, drag and drop, or using Insert Picture from File? How do the jpgs get from your Mac to their PC?

bix red X in jpg files always
Did we eliminate the colour depth problem?
Did we check that the files are actually accessible to the PC Users? Microsoft Office applications will not handle colour greater than 24 bit (RGB) standard. Graphics applications can create CMYK JPEGs (32-bit or 48-bit) and if they do, earlier versions of PC Office applications cannot display them. The Red X also means "The file is unavailable". Which it will be unless the JPEGs are saved on a disk drive somewhere accessible. Users who try to insert the JPEGs directly from their email program will get this problem that as soon as they close the email, the JPEGs they inserted in their documents are deleted from the mailer's temporary storage so the inserted picture displays a red X. Teach the users to save the JPEGs to a folder on the network before inserting them into documents.
