There is an easier way to include pix from freehand into word:
	Hold down the option key when you select Copy (or Cut) from the 
	edit menu. This will incorporate pict information in the Postscript
	file (hence forming an Encapsulated Postscript File :-)

This has always worked for me.
However: I had some problems a while ago printing Superpaint pictures
	from within Word on a LaserJetIIIsi. I have never solved this problem.

(I solved it by using Freehand instead of Superpaint)
