I'm trying to create a poster with different boxes containing text and images. I
want the text to float around the images. This works absolutely great in Writer.
So I took Writer, formatted the page to the width of the boxes mentioned above
and an arbitrary page height. I inserted the text and the picture and arranged
it to look nicely.

So far, so good, now here comes the problem. When I save the text document as
odt and insert it as an OLE object into Draw, what I get is kind of a copy of my
screen layout and the last view (snippet) of the Writer document before I saved
it. This means, if I scroll down, save to odt, import into Draw, the upper part
of my text doc is cut, whereas before the lower part was missing!
In addition, the frame layout of the imported object is quite odd, as it is
wider than the content but it fits the content in height, so I suppose it might
be a cutout of the viewing window I have in Writer! 

Unfortunately, I don't know if this has to be fixed in Writer or in Draw.

As for the first part of the problem (cutting the content): I can see the whole
document in the Draw-embedded object if I just zoom out in Writer so I can see
the whole page, then save it and re-insert the file.
Still, I would like the >>>bounding frame to resemble the page layout of my
writer document by default<<< rather than my screen layout! I can't imagine that
this is much work to fix, but it would be really helpful if it worked like
anyone using this kind OLE functionality probably would expect.

I used the Windows version 2.0.2 but I guess the problem will be the same in
linux. I'll try that as soon as possible.
