Many times in my teaching (statistics especially), I have received WORD documents from students using a mac and on my PC (running Windows 7) the images get replaced with the error message "Quick time and a tiff decompressor are needed to view image"?
Below is a guide (and link) you can follow (I cut and paste this and post it to my classes) to avoid this error:
When you're making your WORD documents on a MAC - you don't want to cut & paste your graphic into your WORD program. DO NOT DO THAT. The worst culprit is graphs from mac excel documents into mac word/powerpoint.
What you want to do is copy the graph into an image program like photoshop or paintshop pro and then save to a JPG file.
Then you need to format -->insert-->image-from-file into your documents (MS Word/Powerpoint).
That is all there is to it.
