I often use EMF images to illustrate technical documents I write in Microsoft Word (since Word doesn't support SVG). But there has always been one major issue: often a single (vector) line in an EMF file is damaged during PDF export (using the built-in PDF export feature of Word 2007+). Here are some examples:
PDF->
PDF->
PDF->
PDF->
PDF->
PDF->
As you can see, in every EMF image, a single line is severely displaced in the PDF version.
Is there some way to resolve this issue? Why does it happen? You can examine the problem yourself using this original EMF file.
(I am using Microsoft Word 2010.)
