Writer document with Draw shape pasted and OLE with dimensioning embedded

Copy paste places a Draw shape--with the unwanted dimension.

Insert -> Object -> OLE Object 'From file' has the desired scaled dimension.

However, working with the OLE is a bit cumbersome--you MUST set drawing canvas
to the size that you need to work with. Also, the placement of the OLE onto a
Writer document will include the OLE frame -- not just the Draw canvas, so
positioning and sizing has to include the extra space.

It is awkward but the key is that the dimensionless is an attribute of the
Drawing, placement (copy/paste) as a shape takes a clip from the Draw canvas.
