I have been using Microsoft Office 2008 for mac on my apple for 2 years. but at the last month, something wrong on my word, when i opened the document all image in the whole document just show the border up, not displaying the image. Look at the image, edit picture and format Object will be disable. It was very terrible.I browsed the solution on the net, spent enough time. But the most solutions on windows, for mac is very rare. at least i found the same problem on the discussion board like this :
Word 2008 not displaying images?
ever since i installed word 2008, images are not being displayed. they show up in the preview mode in finder, but when i open the document in word or textedit, the images are not there. anyone know what’s going on?? may have to go back to office 2004 if i can’t figure this out.
I followed the discussion, hope the problem can be fixed. Unfortunately at the last of discussion is go back to office 2004. But i got the clue from the forum that something wrong on the word 2008 setting with the keyword “image placeholder”.
How to Fix the problem, this is the way :
1. open microsoft word 2008 – WOrd – Preference
2. search “image” setting
3. Uncheck “Image Placeholders” and let “drawings” remain checked.
4. Then look at the document
Back to normal.
