They needn't display poorly. Image quality will depend on your source
image, what you do with it in Word (resizing it in Word is generally a
Bad Idea), what Distiller settings you use, and (for onscreen viewing)
what default magnification you set in Acrobat.
I usually don't say "go read the archives"... but we just discussed
this very issue in the last couple of weeks, so I know there's
relevant material there. (Usually I'd just do my PDF-graphics spiel,
but it's almost lunchtime.)
