Have you tried to save in svg format? That certainly never worked for me.
If
it did, I would use it a lot. I always end up having to save my work in
png
format (and odg for the original in case I have to edit it sometime in
the
future), but svg NEVER worked for me, no matter operating system,
hardware
or even what I was trying to do… Maybe I always do strange things…
It's been a few years since I used the SVG plugin. I clearly remember
importing SVGs with it, but can't remember exporting. Last year when I was
creating mathematics drawings I exported as JPG since it was a web project.
I normally use Inkscape for creating SVGs.
Here are a few sites about OpenOffice.org and SVGs that you may find
helpful:
1. SVG Import Filter for OpenOffice 2.0
http://www.ipd.uka.de/~hauma/svg-import/
This is the plugin I used for importing SVGs into OpenOffice.org a few
years
ago. It's not perfect, but did what I needed at the time.
2. New SVG export filter
http://graphics.openoffice.org/svg/svg.htm
An unfinished SVG export filter. I haven't tried it, but it looks
interesting.
3. SVG User Experiences
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/SVG_User_Experiences
A page from the OpenOffice.org wiki describing the experiences others have
had with SVG.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the links. I have bookmarked them for evaluation later.

To Adrian Try and Johnny Rosenberg: I, also, went and downloaded the
plug in and found it works. But, it has one drawback, you have to access
the library first, click on what clip art you want to see and then it
automatically brings up OODraw! Oh well, at least it works enough to be
useful! :-)
