Coming from OpenOffice 4.1.15 and being a very long time user of Star Office and Open Office I tested LO to see if it can open up documents created by OO. Some of those documents contain linked graphics in PSD format created by Photoshop. LO opens those documents mainly correctly, having sometimes minor format issues. The most disturbing problems is that LO is not showing those PSD files. It generates an empty frame only. In Writer it is possible to use the filter solarisation to get a kind of preview of what is in the frame. Attached an example PSD file. Being new to LO I cannot only say that all my PSD files cannot be used in LO docs whereas it is a no frills thing in OO.
