Not the stuff we do.

I have to agree with Butters (sadly), that Office 2007 is head and shoulders above any of its clones. It's a shame Office 2010 is so bug ridden that it's unusable.
Again Marmite, what are you doing that you can't do in Libreoffice or Scribus?

Embedding Excel data and graphs?

Puts you in the 1% I mentioned above.
We do often have embedded data, but the main thing is the the file is 100% compatible with whoever is going to use it, and that means MS Office 2007 (occasionally you still get some dick in a surprisingly major company insisting on 2003).
