Hi :) Cool :) Thanks :) So, time to post a bug-report? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport The only advantage with docX is that, like Odt, you can rename the file-ending to zip and then dig out the pictures from the "images" folder. It's a pain to get the images back into the right place but hopefully all this might get smoother in the future. Perhaps install 3.6.3 alongside 4.0.0 or perhaps just stick with the more stable branch for a bit longer and try the 4.0.x a bit later? Regards from Tom :)

The older MS format, Doc for 97/2000/Xp/2003 is still currently the best format for sharing files. Odt is becoming more widely used but the only version of MS Office that can really handle it is MS Office 2013. The 2007 and 2010 attempt to implement Odf was a bit sub-optimal.

I can open a .docx document if it is all text with no problems. If the document like a new letter I get in .docx format is opened the graphics are missing, or partically there or off set from where they should be.Tell the source to re-send in odt format, or use google docs to view.I even created a new user and logged in as him, then using SUSE version of LO4.0.0.3 tried the same document with the same results. Also I just took a copy of a news letter I am getting ready to send out ( generated in .odf format) and saved it as a .docx document. the formating was totally messed up and graphics were messed up also (graphics in wrong place, text in wrong place probably caused by graphics being wrong, some graphics just plain blank box,>Good. You should be sending the newsletter in odt format; most modern software can view it, otherwise pdf/html should be used.yes I am aware of compatibility problems. Typical MS. What I am trying to do is open the .docx document, and then save it as odt. This works fine is original doc is all text. But when graphics exist in document and get relocated, missed etc, then its hard to get a proper document. It seems to work better in LO 3.6.3 than in LO 4.0.0.3.
