I've been dealing with MS Word for years and I've never run into this problem. I converted a PDF into MS Word as a DOC file. The Word on my desktop is MS Word 2000. The one i use at work is 2007.

The PDF that I converted had picture it in. I saved this doc as a Word Document and RTF several times with no problems. Then i inserted some pictures of my own. The pictures that I inserted stayed in the file. The originals that were placed in there from the PDF conversion disappeared. I re-inserted the pictures using Word 2000, but when i move the folder that i imported the picture from, they disappear again.

I don't know why this is happening. I'm going to try this in Word 2007 and save it as both a DOCX and DOC file and see if that makes a difference. This is just a test.

Does anyone know why this is happening and what i can do? I don' want to transport a folder with my file everytime i get ready to open it.
