--- Comment #6 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
To paste an image copied from a Word document (by menu or shortcut), Ctrl+V
would not be the correct paste action. 

IIUC you need to paste special as "GDI metafile" into any LO module--except
draw/impress which will take it by default as a GDI metafile (with Ctrl+v) but
alternatas a Bitmap via paste special.

Of course, a copy all (Ctrl+A) paste is picking up formatting applied to the
Word page _and_ any image object(s)--so don't use that unless you want to
formatting to come across.

Try it with the paste special--should give you the result you want.
