Hi Peter,

No further hint was given WHICH object is the culprit.
In this case it would be any/every drawing object in a text box, callout, comment, footnote, or endnote. They shouldn't be too hard to find.

Is there no other way to process the conversion?

maybe there is a good smart docx-to-doc converter utility elsewhere outside of Word?
Well, you could try installing Open Office and using its tools to save in the doc format, but don't hold your breath - it's likely to choke on the same issues and, even in documents that don't have them, is more likely to give a less faithful conversion than is the MS product.
