My memory serves me correct when I say just about everyone gave you the "true answer" you were looking for. No offence, but I think you just were too stubborn to accept it. You even replied that it was 'too many steps'. If you're in the business a while, you'll see things like this can be done in less than a minute or two and not much of a burdon. Unless of course you have to do it 50 times, which would force you to relinquish the "graphic designer" title.

I'll save you a step in the process and repeat what I posted originally; you can export straight from Publisher, Word, Excel as a PDF OR print to .ps, distill and do your color corrections via PitStop. You can bypass the conversion in Illustrator this way. Not that it's wrong or anything, but could be dependant on the type of image used.
