[comp.sys.mac.apps] ChemDraw in MS Word problem

ndg503@csc.anu.oz.au (10/31/90)

Hi,

    For all you people out there who use ChemDraw, I have a recurring
problem that you may have faced in the past. My problem is that when
a structure is created, copied into the clipboard and pasted into a
Microsoft Word 4.0A document, there seems to be something weird
going on with the formatting of the first line of the following
paragraph of text. 

    Now unfortunately this is not all. The problem is intermittent as
it doesn't happen after every cut & paste. Also when you do the initial 
pasting the image and text on the screen look alright, but when you
print this out, we get the formatting problem. Further, when this
formatting problem does occur, the problem is now displayed on the 
screen as well (when it wasn't there before) if we close and open
the document.

    Can anyone shed some light on what is going on.

Thanks in advance...
