Hi :) The 3.4.1 is development branch for 'early adopters' and has some advanced features but also has oddities and maybe even regressions. It's a bit like seeing a play or a movie on the opening night or in the first week. I suspect that the 3.4.2 will be much the same. The 3.3.3 is the latest release of the stable branch and supported for a year apparently although it's not clear exactly what that means. A bit like watching a football match after everyone has told you all about the highlights and who won. It lacks some of the newer features but it's less quirky, less surprises. Anyone with the 3.4.1 is probably well advised to install the 3.3.3 alongside for when they need reliability but it's not easy so this guide should help with that.

Thanks John, I will try that. So, no real difference from 3.4.1 to 3.4.2 then? OK, so I wouldn't expect too many changes, but the odd bug fix would be nice!!

Tony Just downloaded 3.4.2 from Filehippo, tested and at this moment cannot find any bug fixes from 3.4.1. However, the disappearing pics still happens in this version for saving in .docx format Now, I know some people are not keen on this work around, but if you paste your picture into a text box (Insert>frame), it works. You have to remove the box borders so that the text box does not show *and* they will stop the pictures moving around. regards John XP sp3 LO 3.4.2 - OOO340m1 (Build:201) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On 22/07/2011 10:50, Tony Royston wrote: > Thank you Jorge, I will try that and report back my findings. > > Tony. > > ________________________________ > > -----Original Message----- > From: jorge [mailto:jrodrigue...@cpcecr.com] > Sent: Friday,22 July, 2011 0:34 > To: users@global.libreoffice.org > Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer images disappeared! > > Hi > > I suggest you to do this: > > 1) Save the original document (.docx) as .odt > 2) Look if .odt document is correct > 3) If it is correct save .odt document as .docx > 4) Look if it is correct. > > Regards, > > Jorge Rodríguez > ____________ > > > > > El mié, 20-07-2011 a las 16:22 +0100, Tom Davies escribió: > >> Hi :) >> Can you try saving as Doc instead of DocX?
