I don't want to seem ungrateful for people's suggested workarounds, but I think I'd better explain that what I was really after wasn't a workaround, but some way to get that darn Save as Picture command to start working again! The problem wasn't that I couldn't get copies of the pictures. It was that I wanted a simple way to do it - more precisely, I wanted to do no more work than I had been doing when Save as Picture still worked. Getting my work environment to switch to LibreOffice would unfortunately count as a major piece of work - it could maybe even be called a Sisyphean task!
