For me (winXP-pro) it works sort of ok. Putting a picture as a tiled background to the page using OOo, saved as .odt, then re saved as .doc. Reopening in word the background was still there. Things that didn't work so well : - The graphic, when displayed in word were not the same proportions as what they were in OOo. This had nothing to do with the 'tiling' of the picture, since I redid it and the distortion remains. Word seems to try and stretch the graphic over the entire page. - In word, the graphic is displayed over the whole page. In word the graphic is only displayed over the same area as occupied by the text. This means that you get a square of non graphic around the outside according to the set margins.
