Re: [libreoffice-users] Page formatting in writer goes nuts

My questions were an effort to determine whether how you were using 
styles was the problem. Unfortunately, from your answers, I don't  think  
so.

However, there are some longstanding quirks in how frames and images 
work that usually kick in when there are lots of images.

I don't know any easy way to correct your problem, but in future you 
might try placing images in a table, as described in this article:

http://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Blogs/Off-the-Beat-Bruce-Byfield-s-Blog/The-mysteries-of-positioning-pictures-in-LibreOffice-OpenOffice

This solution limits options for text wrapping, but does seem to make 
pictures stay where you place them.

Hope this helps.
