Word for Windows doesn't show Illustrator (mac) Tiff previews
Just changed to Illustator CS and now when we save with Tiff preview (opaque) and the graphic is imported into Word on a Windows box there is no preview (just a blank box). The file prints correctly. The preview shows ok on Word on a Mac. Anyone have any ideas?

When you saved the file, did you save it with Preview? DId you use 1 bit or 8 bit?

Preview
8-bit Tiff was the preview used at first but subsequently tried all the others and the varying options, all to no avail!

I now understand that Word no longer uses the Tiff preview but renders its own preview from the eps, but this appears to fail with later Postscript version eps files. I would be interested in anyone else has experienced this.
