------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Nov 26 21:19:06 +0000 2007 ------- The original post: 'To reproduce: Open a new document in Writer. Insert two pictures, one with a width of 22.75 inches, the second with a width greater than 22.75 inches. Use the sizing handles to reduce the width of each picture to about half the document width.' Although I'm not working QA (yet), I'd like to suggest that this might not be useful information for others to reproduce the problem. Digital graphics know nothing of linear measures; graphic sizes are measured in data density relative to image resolution, usually expressed (still not quite accurately) as a number of pixels per inch. Let's say you're able to specify that an image will occupy an area that will print out at 22.75" wide and, to keep it simple, 22.75" tall. That image file at 60 ppi will be considerably smaller than an image file at 600 ppi that is set to print in the same area. The amount of data varies considerably and must be processed differently at the two resolutions. What I would need to know is what resolution and graphic format the pictures are in, whether they're in color (and if so, what color depth) and how large each file's size is. Are you using the same image file for both insertions? Are the images square or rectangular? That is, would an image that seems to be 23" wide and 0.5" tall exhibit the same behavior as whatever image you're using? In my daily work I convert user manuals from doc to odt (and vice versa) with gif images anchored as character, but I haven't run into this effect. I also work with small files, however, and standard letter page sizes. Maybe the page size has something to do with it too. As for images anchored as character, I recall there used to be a maximum font size above which Writer couldn't display the font. I'm pretty sure it was marked as resolved a version or two ago, and I can't find it in the issue tracker now, but I do remember it being a problem and I can't help wondering if an image treated as a character might be causing similar issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
