Hi,<br />
<br />
My company has a few hundred word documents with eps images in them. Recently we became aware that these documents do not work correctly in Word 2008 for mac, because of an updated EPS filter or similar causing the images to be displayed improperly. I am looking for a VBA Script to read the document and convert the EPS files to a different format like JPG, PNG, or even WMF I guess, so that Word 2008 on mac can use these documents. <br />
<br />
I am open to using other languages to perform this task as well, I just figured that VBA would be better suited to it as it is built into the office suite. <br />
<br />
The documents were created in Word 2003<br />

VBA Script to Convert all Images from eps to jpg or png

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
