Hi.
Its not just text in a box. I have had problems with charts and may be
tables and lines and annotations from docx.
2 screen snaps attached for Tom showing something I don't really want
bandied about in public that won't import and which google docs garbles.

Hi :)
Yes :( All sorts of boxes with text in them could be affected. This looks
like
the same problem. Is there a bug-report about this that can be added to? Text
out-side of boxes seems fine. Pictures seem fine although possibly just moved
around a little.
I think annotations is a separate bug-report.
Regards from
Tom :)
PS That was kinda semi-confidential. There were no clues about locations (even
to the nearest hemisphere), time, dates (to the nearest decade), or even events
& all best kept that way.
