Andrew, could you expand a little on the repercussions of using GIFs in a
Word doc? I was a little concerned when I saw your post, since I currently
have a 160-page Word 97 doc loaded with inline, non-linked GIFs. No
problems so far, except when I inadvertently used some transparent GIFs and
then PDF'd the thing (big mess then).
