I made a 'template' in LO for an A3 leaflet with a background image

table and images on top of it.
Everything works fine in LO, and also if exported as PDF.
But when saved as .doc the entire background image is gone.
Any ideas about what happens?
Can't you use background images in Word?
So far the client has to use the pdf ...
The problem is the same as it always has been: a file created by
one program does not always look the same when viewed in another
program. This has been known to happen even in different versions of
Word. PDF was designed to prevent this problem, so I doubt that it is a
matter of the client "has to use ..." but rather is a good choice.
Specifically, Word uses background images in different way than
LibreOffice. As a test, I opened an .odt file using Abiword which is
suppose to use ODF formats. It had some graphics that Abiword rendered
as small thumbnails. It had a numbered list that covered several
paragraphs. Abiword put them into a single paragraph while wrapping text.
