Placing word documents with embedded metafiles

$

Hello,

 

 

I have a Word document with Windows Metafile embedded pictures (with .EPS extensions). The pictures are math formulas, and I am not sure what tool they were created with.

 

I open the document with Word 2010. I tried saving the document in both doc and docx format before placing in InDesign. But with ether format the following issue persists.

 

The embedded metafile images look fine in Word, however after placing them in InDesign, the individual elements and clipping paths inside the embedded metafile images change their relative to each other positions, so the formulas start looking very wrong – individual symbols collide and/or get clipped.

 

Why is this happening? Is there a way to work around this issue?

 

I am on Windows 7 and InDesign CS 6.0.

 

 

Thank you
