I have a long Word document with illustrations embedded within the text. Is it possible to maintain the Print Layout and simply cut and paste the document into RapidWeaver? I thought I might just convert it to HTML but that throws all the illustrations and page endings out of sync and appears to require a lot of additional work with CSS coding etc, which is way beyond me. So, is there a simple hack beside just embedding a PDF file?

For that matter I just tried embedding a pdf file with the result that it simply does appear! So I’m obviously doing that wrong.
