I'm using OOo version 2.0.1.1 on Fedora Core 4 with all the latest patches. I create a document with pictures from files. The picture is an encapsulated postscript (.eps) file that I use OOo draw to convert to a .emf (enhanced metafile). I convert them because OOo has the nasty habit of not displaying eps files correctly (it screws up the size and makes them smaller with no way to correct them - it doesn't do this with emf's). I insert the emf (embedded not linked) and save as both a .odt and .doc. As long as the .doc file hasn't been closed, the emf picture appears and looks perfect. If I close the .doc and re-open - the picture is gone (this doesn't happen with the .odt version). This ALWAYS happens. If I take the .doc and .emf to windows, open in MS Word, and insert the .emf file in the .doc, the .emf displays perfectly. If I save the .doc from MS Windows, it opens perfectly in OOo and displays the .emf picture.
Why can't I get OOo to store the .emf picutre in a .doc version file? How can OOo be used for compatibility with MS Word docs if it doesnt' save it's own pictures? Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I've checked options to see if something is set wrong but I don't see any applicable options to change. I know I'm embedding the pictures and not just linking them.
