Leepat -
I did this for a friend - what you need to do is make sure you put your cursor exactly at the start - or on the second word of the instruction for a block and end it as soon as you have the entire instruction - with or without pictures. You can cut and past simply the instructions without the picture, but again - start in a bit from first word and finish at last word - may have to do so before the punctuation "period" - control C and then paste into Word. I have not had a problem the couple of times I did this.
hope it helps!!
