slopes (the left end of the line is at a lower position than the right end
of the line) into Microsoft Word 7.x for Windows 95, the lines
change to negative slopes (the left end of the line is at a higher
position than the right end of the line).

Mswrd832.cnv. The version of the converter that you are using does not
properly convert positive sloped lines.

To resolve this problem, upgrade to the latest version of the Word 97
Import Converter. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 162214 WD: How to Obtain the Word 97-2000 Import Converter

Word 97 Import Converter.

with Microsoft Office 97 SR-2.
