Re: [libreoffice-users] Drawing arrows in Writer.

       And that's always seemed the easiest method to me -
           also allows any image to be inserted into the document whenever,
wherever desired.

As has already been suggested, you can insert a line in a text document
(using the Drawing toolbar) and then format it in many ways (Format |
Object > | Line... or right-click | Line...), including adding arrowheads.

But you can also create whatever you need in a Draw or Impress document and
easily copy-and-paste it into a text document. The resulting arrow can
still be manipulated in the text document.

I trust this helps.
