What I do is split the .pdf into separate pages using pdftk (i.e., $pdftk figures.pdf burst ). Then, I convert the resulting pages into high res images with convert. I use a command such as: $convert -colorspace RGB -interlace none -density 800 -quality 100 pg_0003.pdf figure01.jpg Then, I crop the images as needed. That way, I have the separate images saved, and they are in a format that plays well with MS. -Jacob
