OmniGraffle to Word X best way?

[Nate Goldshlag]

David,

I have a big technical document.  I really want objects not bitmaps.  
This is why graphics professionals like EPS.  With JPEG or PNG, 
printing is ridiculously slow, even on a fast laser printer at work.  
And the file size is larger.

I really need an EPS solution with preview for OG.
