Hi
Thanks. I think there is a good chance of it getting sorted faster in LO:
1. There's more devs
2. None of the management are more keen on "stability" than fixing things
Is there a bug-report that you know of in LO (or OOo)?
I didn't get much time to explore the parameters of this. On the older machine the document was in a different networked folder from the pictures and most of the pictures were hopelessly huge. On the newer machine i copied the pictures to a local folder along with the document and edited the pictures to make them reasonable. So, quite a wide range of possibilities could have caused the intermittent problem.
