Are the images embedded in the document, or are they links? One way to
check, apart from a macro, is to copy your document to a "zip" file
extension (copy hello.odt to hello.zip) and then unzip the document.
Look for the images in one of the directories.
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,
What he was saying was to make a copy of the file somewhere on your
computer (desktop maybe?) and then for you to rename the copied file so
that it had a zip extension. IE: Rename hello.odt to hello.zip. Why? So
that you could then open the file with your archive handling software.
An odt file is actually a zip file, but some archiving software won't
open it unless it has a zip extension.

Jack
