I copied a page of text from an article in Firefox which contained several
small inline GIF images (15x17 pixels, for instance). I then pasted it into
OO Writer. The small images expanded, becoming 0.79"x0.39" (about 5x). The
size of the text didn't appear to change, just the images.
Is this something worth describing in an issue, or is there something I can
do to prevent this (without manually resizing all N similar images in the
document)?
You must understand how html coding works to understand this. The image
you see in your browser may be sized to a specific size by code. The
actual image may be of a different size. When you copy the page you are
copying the actual image but not the code that has re-sized it to fit
the alloted space on the page.
After you paste the image, click on it and you should see "handles"
appear. Grab a corner handle, hold down the shift key (to retain the
correct ratio of height to width, and resize the image to fit your
application. You may have to set the word wrap properties of the image
and fiddle with it to make it look more like the web page.
