Hi :) I've often found that even tho images appear to have vanished they are still really there somewhere. That gives at least 2 opportunities; 1. Edit and save without trying to find the images and then see if the images apparently re-appear in the right places when the edited file is opened back in MS Office 2007/2010 2. Hunt around the edges of the pages and move any images you do find anywhere to see if the other images have been hidden underneath as they tend to get piled-up on-top of each other.

Occasionally I get one that I have to open MSO and convert to doc (2003) or ODF 1.0/1.1. Usually it is some graphic layout that causes the problem. This is known issue with LO and AOO. docx file conversions are occasionally difficult because MS is trying to push their proprietary MS Office and makes open the file accurately problematic. If you are using Linux, you might try Calligra Words (probably available in your repository) to see if it is better at opening the file and saving to odt. -- Jay Lozier jsloz...@gmail.com -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
