> 
> Does anyone have any experience of programmatically adjusting 
> images in Word documents? I need to reduce the file size of 
> about 500 Word docs, all of which have 5 or so images 
> embedded at the original size but only displayed at about 
> 25%. Each one weighs in at somewhere between 4 and 6 Mb, and 
> we need to get that down by much as possible.
> 
> Not having used Word in this way before, is it a question of:
> 
>  looping through the documents images array
>  for each image, determining it's visible dimensions
>  cutting the image from the document
>  resizing it in memory to the visible dimensions
>  pasting it back at the same spot
> 
> Sounds like a crazy plan, but might it just work? Anyone got 
> a handle on where to start?

> Thanks, and sorry for the Friday OT.
