Re: text with pictures
I tried to paste the combination of text and pictures into the Apache Open Office text document which did not work. Which Writer document should I paste it into? Please advise.

In OpenOffice org 3.4.1 Writer you can definitely do it-- select the area of the page which includes the text and picture, using the mouse, do ctrl-c, and then paste it into the word processor.
