Hi everyone! I'm sorry if this has already been address somewhere, but I'm going crazy trying to find an answer on my own. I'm a fiction author used to dealing with straight text, so when a friend asked me to help him format his non-fiction book I figured it'd be no trouble.

Problem is, his book is packed full of images. Maps, tables, graphs, all kinds of things. And every time I try to convert to Mobi, they shrink to the size of postage stamps. I've spent hours on Google, trying everything I can think of, but no luck.

Can anyone give a relative newbie a little advice on how to do this? I've tried everything from increasing the resolution of the images to increasing their physical size up as far as A3, but with no luck at all.

I'm using Word 2010 to format.
