Hi Brian, Thank you for your explanation. " I'm guessing you mean as a background? When you do this, there should be a Link option, and this may become ticked by default. In that case, the image is not embedded in the document file, but is required to be available for inclusion when the document is reopened. In particular, this will not work properly if you send the document to a correspondent without separately sending the image. If you remove the tick from Link before pressing OK, the image should be embedded - as you need. " I am unable to find this "link" option which you have mentioned, while saving my document as a ".docx" format. The background image is not getting embedded when I save the document, hence the background image does not display when I reopen the document. " I'm unsure how this could work: it seems a contradiction to me. If the background was blue and the image was red (at some point), what colour would you hope for? Blue? Red? Purple? " A few of the background images are white in colour, which makes a very harsh contrast with black fonts. These images would look a lot more pleasing & soothing to the eyes with a yellow or pale orange background for example (of course this opinion is subjective). Hence if you could allow the background colour to be embedded on the document along with the background image, it would allow the user to customise the document as per his preference. If this causes the document to change to a wierd colour (like you have mentioned), the user can easily undo the changes & revert back to a background colour which is preferable. I hope I have been able to explain myself properly in this email, & I look forward to your reply.

That is because you do not really "save" your document in this format, but instead export a copy, probably for transmission to others. In this case, it makes sense for such images to be automatically embedded. >Also, while editing a Writer Document with "high contrast" mode >turned off, adding an "Image" background together with a "Color" >background (under "Page Style"), does not appear to work for Writer >Documents.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Libre Office bugs (Windows 10 pro PC)
> 1> If I turn on "high contrast" mode on my PC While this email won't solve your problems, I'd like to point out that MS Windows 10 has 2 (seemingly independent, but not really) settings: 1. Personalization > Colors > ** Light/Dark for Windows ** Light/Dark for the applications 2. On the same "Personalization > Colors" window, on the right side you should see the link to High Contrast configuration. Within High Contrast, there are several "Themes" available. LibreOffice might react differently to each combination of all the possible aforementioned settings. YMMV.

[libreoffice-users] Libre Office bugs (Windows 10 pro PC)
Hi, Trust you are doing well. This email is with regards to some bugs which I encounter while using Libre Office. I am currently running Libre Office (version 24.2.1) on my Windows 10 Pro (version 22H2) PC, & I am facing the following issues: 1> If I turn on "high contrast" mode on my PC, the background of my Writer Document ".docx" page turns black (which is appropriate). However, if I try to highlight any text on the page (using the mouse) for editing, the highlighted background does not show up against the black background. I do not face this issue once I turn off "high contrast". Could you kindly resolve this issue so that users who are visually impaired like myself, could use your program appropriately using the "high contrast" mode on Windows PC's. Also, if I try to add a "Gradient" (under "Page Style") while "high contrast" is turned on, the "Gradient" options are all displayed in pitch black instead of displaying the proper gradient colors. Once again, I do not face this issue once I turn off "high contrast". 2> While editing a Writer Document with "high contrast" mode turned off, if I add an "Image" (under "Page Style") & save the document as ".docx", the "Image" which I added does not get saved. I do not face this issue when I save the document as a ".PDF" file extension. Also, while editing a Writer Document with "high contrast" mode turned off, adding an "Image" background together with a "Color" background (under "Page Style"), does not appear to work for Writer Documents. I am able to use either "Image" or "color", but not both together for the same document. Kindly allow this combined formatting for a more customised & presentable document. Please keep me updated on the resolution of the bugs which I have mentioned in my email. Eagerly looking forward to your reply.
