That is strange as here it does. I opened a jpg in gimp, cut and

Is what I get from this that OOo indeed converts JPGs (and GIFs and
PICTs?) into PNG as its native image state? That I should rename these
mystery "Picture" folder image files with long number filenames with PNG
extensions to render them right in viewers or re-pasting?

Hello,
Did a quick test:
- a cut and pasted picture doesn't seem to trigger a folder 'Pictures'
in the odt folder
- an inserted picture (Insert > Picture > From File) appears in the
'Pictures' folder in the odt zip
This would explain a lot with one of my frustrating hangups, like maybe
why I can't get imbedded MOVs to cut their links and be standalone image
files, no matter whether I use the insert menu or direct cut-paste.
Might this be related to why images in RTF documents created in other
WPs won't be rendered in OOo a'la "No QT decompressor available"? A
image/mov insertion bug perhaps?
I personally don't trust Go-oo or the Ubuntu OpenOffice.org. It seems to
be made of bugs; I found quite a few before I switched to the ”vanilla
OpenOffice.org” on my Ubuntu machine. My impression of Ubuntu
OpenOffice.org was that very much simply doesn't work (and we have four
Ubuntu machines altogether, me and my wife, and we had the same problems
will all of them).
However, if this is relevant in this particular case, I don't know.
