Ok, in my quest to get beautiful totally scaleable non-jaggy geometric
drawings in PDF format from word documents, I finally gave up on
embedding Viso in Word, and simply used Word Draw. This is unfortunate
because Visio is such a powerful flexible tool for doing geometric
drawings, but I wanted super clean looking drawings.

Here is one of my old PDF's -- converted from Visio embedded in Word

I contacted a number of vendors of PDF conversion software, but none of
them really could give me a definitive answer as to how to get their
conversion software to treat embedded visio objects as scaleable
graphics and text.

I really did not want to become the worlds expert on Conversion from
Word with Embedded Visio. I just wanted to use a couple of commercial
packages to do some nice looking diagrams. I did experiment a little
with embedded auto cad, and that seemed to scale beautifully too. I
think it would be nice to know where the source of the conversion
problem is, but I don't want to spend a bunch of time becoming an
expert on the technical details of the PDF conversion process.
