Has anybody seen this weird one?

We are having a problem using MathType (version 2) with Word (version 4):

When printing a Word file with MathType equations in the background, the
equations *on the first page only* are squished vertically about 10x. This
doesnt happen with background printing off, or if we revert to the
old LaserWriter 5.2 (non-greyscale) driver. It happens on variety of
machines (SE, II, IIci) with Systems 6.0.2 to 6.0.4 and 0 to many INITs.
This only happens when the equations are directly copy/pasted from
MathType, and not if first pasted into SuperPaint 2, then into Word.

Weird!
