What does "linked to the frame" mean? They have to be stored or linked
to somewhere. Does this mean "don't use OOo frames for graphics when
the file has to be exported to Word"?

OOo is not fully compatible with word, so this kinds of things is

Pictures are compressed to wmf I think in word, so the more pictures
there is, the more likely that the .doc document is smaller than the
.sxw, I think.
About that your pictures are not visible: When importing them, did
you uncheck the link checkbox? If not, the pictures are linked to the
frame rather then included in the document.
At least this is what I think.

I had to get the doc out the door, so I deleted the graphics from
the doc file. It decreased in size by 1K, so they definitely
weren't in there.
Still don't know why. I still have the sxw file with pictures.

OOo 1.1.4 (Mandrake 9.1) -> Word 2000 (Win 98SE):
I just created my first writer document with a text frame in it.
It's 5 pages of text followed by a frame linked to paragraph with
four pictures (jpg) in it.
In OOo/Linux, everything works great. I saved the file in sxw and
doc formats. I have to send it to a Windoze user. I then rebooted
into Windoze to verify the doc file.
In Windoze, Word 2000 screws up the pagination a bit putting part
of the 5th page on the 6th. That's no big deal, but page 6 has the
border of the frame running off the bottom of the page (even the
footer is gone on that page) and I see no pictures.
Just for the heck of it, I tried opening the file in OOo 1.1.4 for
Windoze. It opens fine and doesn't screw up the text pagination,
but still no pictures.
I went back into Linux and unzipped the sxw file and the jpg's are
in it, not linked.
Any ideas what's going on? Are frames too much for the doc format
in 1.1.4?
One *really* weird thing: On Linux, the sxw file is 53,448 ad the
doc file is 35,328. That had me worried to start with because OOo
files are "always?" smaller than doc files.
