Hi, I have a problem with LO 4.0.3. I set an image background, I use wmf, png and bmp,(I should use a vector image) in a rtf file and i save the file without problem. When I reopen the file the background disappears. I checked the rtf file syntax and there isn't the syntax \background. I have a big problem also with "insert image". Infact if I anchor the image to the page and save to rtf file if I reopen the file, the anchorage is lost.
So I don't know a whole lot about RTF format but I can confirm your bug on 3.6.4.3. Changing version to reflect oldest version that we can confirm issue (this is our policy) Version 3.6.4.3 Bodhi Linux 2.2 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Marking as: New (confirmed) Normal (although it's a loss of data, this is warned about when saving as RTF, plus RTF isn't used all that much) High (loss of data, think high is accurate) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ @Staff - please keep two things in mind when reporting bugs: 1. Provide reproducible steps no matter how easy the bug seems to reproduce, makes QA's job 10x easier. 2. Do not put two bugs in one report, I am not testing the second issue you posted, please make that a second bug report.
Providing some background: Writer supports multiple page styles, and background is a page style property. Word supports only a single background for the whole document. For simple background color we just export the background color of the first page style. Doing the same could be done for background images as well.

Rechecking this, what I wrote in comment 2 is only true for DOCX, in RTF we don't even export the page background fill if it's just a solid color. I'll take care of that, and I suggest to create follow-up bugs for the other fill types (bitmap, gradient, etc).
