The Macintosh clipboard doesn't support EPSF. The graphic object that pastes into MacWrite II/ MS Word is the PICT Preview portion of the EPSF, which does not contain the Postscript portion of the EPSF.
Neither MacWrite II nor Word 4.0 support EPSF. (The EPSF filter from FileMaker Pro shows in the MacWrite II Insert File pop-up list, but only the PICT Preview is read. Word does not have any file Import commands to import graphic files from disk).
The following workarounds are available:
1) Importing EPSF objects into Microsoft Word: instructions for doing this are on page 288 of the Word Reference manual. You can import EPSF files by holding down the shift key when selecting open. You have to alter the bounding rect of the graphic (there are instructions).
2) Work with non-EPSF objects to transfer (MacDraw Pro objects, PICT, TIFF and/or bitmap objects). These objects will copy/paste correctly. Or, save as a PICT file and import into MacWrite II.
3) If the MacDraw Pro document includes both MacDraw Pro objects and EPSF objects imported from another program: consider locating the source documents for the EPSF and bringing these objects into MacDraw Pro as PICT. Or, consider combining the text and graphics in a page layout program, rather than in a word processor.
4) If the MacDraw Pro drawing takes up a full page, leave a blank page in your word processing document where the graphic would have gone. Then leave your drawing as a MacDraw Pro document and print it separately. The word processing document will paginate correctly, and you'll get maximum print quality.
