Tool Bar Button Image Bug

[gluckj]

Hi,

I'm using Word in Mac Office 2004. I like to create custom buttons in
the toolbar for various little macros I run.

Back on my PC (I recently swtiched) Word 2000 has a built in editor for
button images. Word 2004 on the Mac lacks this, but does allow you to
paste any image onto a toolbar button.

However, there seems to be a bug -- the image I paste seems to be
reduced to a smaller size than Word's own toolbar buttons. It does this
when I try to paste an image file such as a GIF or BMP.

Anyone know of a workaround to this?
Alternately, anyone have the ability to report this bug to MS?
This might be a relatively easy fix for them -- something they might be
kind enough to include in an online update...

TIA,
Joel

I can reproduce this - all images seem to be displayed as 16x16 pixels,
whereas the native faces are 20x20 pixels.

In theory, posting here reports the bug, but I'll report it directly as
well.
