Placing Drawings in MS Word Documents

Placing Drawings in MS Word Documents

(OP)
Alright...this is probably not the best place to post this, but I'm lost.

I have a drawing in Intergraph's Smartsketch that I want to get into a Microsoft Word document. I've tried saving the image in a .tif format, but the printout from word looks like it was run through a fax machine.  I tried saving the file in an Autocad .dxf format, but I can't get that to go into my word document.

Anyone know how to get my drawing across looking good?

(Best I've come up with is to draw the diagram in Visio.  But it's not very good for drawing certain items.)

There are tons of options for file formats and I don't want to ge through them all...
