Description ajteras 2009-09-08 14:03:40 UTC 
I have included pictures in my text document which I have copied from OpenOffice
Draw, first converting them to Metafile (Modify / Convert / To Metafile). If I
save the document in Word 97/2000/XP (.doc) or RTF format, the pictures
disappear completely or are corrupted when opened in Microsoft Word 2007. I
didn't have the chance to test if the same happens with other versions of MS Word.

The pictures are still okay if I open the same document again in OOo Writer, but
they don't get transferred to MS Word correctly.

I'll attach a test document and a screenshot.

That it is not saved in RTF is already tracked as issue 3790.

MRU->SJ: can confirm this. When a grouped object like in the attachment is
exported to MS format, only one of the objects will be exported to the metafile.
When opened in OOo the metafile will look fine, but not when opened in e.g. MS word.
