Your best bet is to ask in demon.ip.support.mac where Netscape-type related
questions stand the best chance of being spotted and answered. I've added
it to the newsgroups.

You can't save them except as screen images- I've never tried it, but maybe
Cmd-shift-3 will do something, although it would only capture what's on
screen.

A page on the web isn't complete in itself but requires the graphics in
addition to the text, and the browser fetches them from the server as
separate files. They in turn are held in the Nestcape cache. By using a
Netscape history application you can reconstruct the pages from the cache
file, as though you were getting them on line, although much faster. I
don't know how Nestcape does this; when I used v1.1, I used a separate
Nescape History program which did the job. Maybe it's now built in to
Netscape as it is into Internet Explorer.

If you save the documents from Netscape as HTML, rather than plain text,
and you recover the image files from the Netscape cache, it should be
possible (I think) to reconstruct the page in Word 6. But I'd hate to have
to work out how.

Others who know more about this will certainly be able to help you more.
