Find the Cadopia website (www.cadopia.com I think)
download a trial version of Intellicad. Set the limits and
zoom all so that your picture is nicely positioned in the
screen, then export as a r12 asci dxf. This will work with
Word 97.

Hi George,

The MS filter used for DXF conversions was created
with AutoCad for Word v6 and supported AutoCad R12
and below format DXF files.  AutoCad has not provided
a filter for the versions later than R12 and MS has retired
the present DXF filter as the result of a security review
of the converters and filters.  If you're using AutoCad
you may want to try exporting as a WMF file and using
that with Word through Insert=>Picture

=========
What files do I need to import a DXF graphic drawing into
MS Word?
Where do I download the converter

Thanks,

George>>
