The problem isn't really if there are lots of images or graphics, but rather that word isn't great at handling complex layouts.

I somehow doubt OPs converter does much better. I hope to be proven wrong though.

The biggest problem is not Word's limitations in handling complex layouts, but PDF's complete lack of layout information.
