Image not shown properly in Microsoft Office

This is the screen shot of a Microsoft Office document with an image inserted into it. The top one is the original image. But Office kept on showing it with white portions as black. This is shown at the bottom of the Screen shot.

If you have met with a problem like the above one its just a minor bug in Microsoft Office that renders transparency in PNG (Portable Network Graphics) images. To put it lightly Office will not show PNG images with transparency. The problem could be solved with a workaround. Try saving the image as GIF with transparency or make the transparent pixels just white (remove transparency) and add the new image. It will be rendered correctly. No other image type seems to cause a problem.
