Actually, they're both.  But right now the two I have open are scanned 
documents meaning the graphics are embedded.

I'm not understanding your post though:  Since literally copying a file 
to a zip is meaningless, I assumed you meant to zip it.  As expected, it 
zipped fine. the zip contains only the one file, and unzipping it 
over-writes the exact same file I zipped.  Yes, I'm working with copies.
   If you meant HT* format, well yes, that will create a folder for the 
images, but I don't see the relevance.

So I guess you'll have to clarify that for me.  No subfolder etc. were 
created.

I used Word and it worked fine.  Displays graphics OK.
Opening the Word document with Writer is also fine; graphics OK.
But creating the Writer document same way I did with Word, only the 
plackeepers show up; as if placekeepers were turned on.

I'll have to experiment some more I guess.

Thanks,

Twayne
