Description Fred Sargent 2019-02-25 05:43:08 UTC
Description:
On opening word 1997- 2003 documents, in many cases at least half of the linked images are not displayed- yet many are. It appears arbitrary, some images from the one folder are displayed, others are not. In other, similar, documents all linked images are displayed. Also the links shown are incorrect, with the link to the document itself included. I have only just recently downloaded LibreOffice and I am looking for a substitute for Microsoft Word on a new computer, but I must have this facility mentioned. I cannot complete the rest of the form as I have no idea what is meant by the terms used.




Actual Results:
open a Word 1997- 2003 document with linked images

Expected Results:
as stated above


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Shown the linked images
