Unable to replicate the issue, can you attach the sample document or may be the
steps that you followed to save, and what graphics did the document have and so.

document is at  http://spazioinwind.libero.it/davidechiodi/test.odt; it was
originally created with OOo 1.4. Bye

This is not easy to explain...
First is, that the graphics positin does not really get lost. The paragraph,
where all the objcts are anchored to, moved to the first page. You can correct
this manually by inserting an empty paragraph (just press Enter-key) in the
lower part of first page.

Now to the technical background of this behaviour:
In OO 2.0 a higher resolution for processing fonts / formatting the document was
introduced (mainly to get better compatibility to MS Word font display). The
mentioned odt document was originally created in OO 1.1.x, thus it uses the
older (lower) resolution. The information, which resoluition to be used cannot
be written into MS Word format, thus the higher (new) resolution will be used
whe the exported file is repoened in OO.
This leads to the small difference in having one more paragraph on the first
page then before.

I hpoe, my words could explain the behaviour here and that this cannot be fixed
anyway.

Closed.

thanks mru for explaining and for the great work all you do.
