Have you tried right-clicking the object and saving it "out" from there?
I have found this to work with extracting various images from Word docs
people have sent me.

The other option just slightly mentioned if all else fails is to make a
screenshot of just the image you want. You could then open it in Preview
and save it as another format as needed. You would then import that back
as a file into your 2nd Word document and scale as needed; or you can
scale to the size you need in a 3rd party app mentioned, like Graphic
Converter, Photoshop (Elements or regular) or other image editing
software. Screenshots are typically 72 pixels per inch, that is why you
would enlarge it before capture. Else the other option to save as EPS or
PDF would be a better choice if image quality/resolution is an issue.

To *your* perspective the system is a 'fragmented mess'. To the system
though its fine. It defrags as much as it 'needs' to, not to make some
arbitrary plot of the disc layout look nice and neat, to a human.

Bottom line is the system knows what its doing, and defraging by hand is
just a placebo for you really. It makes *you* feel better but doesn't
actually do much good. If anything you are just stressing the hard-disk
unnecessarily...
