MS Word EPS Distiller vs PDFMaker

I have MS Word 2007 files with EPS pictures in. Using Acrobat 9 Pro. Windows XP SP3.

If I print to PDF the result is always fine. When I use the PDFMaker to get my bookmarks, etc, I sometimes get a low res version of the pics. Always the same pics that fail but some do work.

Anyone shed any light?

Cheers,
Dan

The PDFMaker macro in Word 2007 doesn't use the same process as Distiller (or printing to PDF). What conversion setting are you using in the PDFMaker macro?

I've tried Standard and High Quality Print, both produce the same result.
