I observed a somewhat different problem regarding pasting an image into open 
office writer. 
I have a document in Ms 2003 which contains some images along with text. I copy 
entire file (including the image) and try to paste it on the open office 
writer. After pasting, the text appears fine. However no image is shown. Only 
the link to that image appears inside the empty box. If I double-click in the 
box, a window will pop up with some options and tabs and there I can see my 
image only as a thumbnail on the right hand side.
Next I tied to paste an image from the different source. I copied   myPic.jpg 
from my computer and then paste it on open office writer. This time image 
appears correctly. I also tried the “insert” button and form there 
select “Picture”. Using this approach also worked fine.
Therefore I observed that only images form Ms 2003 causes the problem.
This problem does not occur in Ms 2003. In other words I could to copy an image 
from open office writer and paste it on Ms 2003 with no problem.
A possible way to work around the problem is that when pasting an image to open 
office writer from the Ms 2003, do not just use “ctrl-v (or maybe right-click 
on mouse + Paste).
Instead do the following:
1.      From the menu tab select Edit and select “Paste Special”. A new window 
will open.
2.       In a new window, in the “Selection” list, selecting any of the choices 
(except “HTML format” or “HTML format without comments”) and then pressing “Ok” 
will paste your image correctly.
This problem arises due to type format when copying form Ms 2003 to open office 
writer. Therefore by choosing a different format (using “Paste Special”) we can 
paste the image to the appropriate format.
This problem does not exist in Ms 2003 and we do not need to use “Special 
Paste” when copying an image form open office writer to Ms 2003.
