I'm curious as to whether anyone else has experienced this problem:

Whenecer I paste a graphic from MacDraw Pro into Word and scale it down or
up, any text contained in the image shows strange kerning anomalies
when printed (e.g., the letters overlap or space out unevenly, large
spaces appear in the middle of words).

Has anyone else experienced this?

Claris has identified the problem as relating to the way Word scales
objects, although the same graphic imported as a pict via the Insert
Picture command scales without producing this strange anomaly.

Suggestions?
