If you do any in the future make sure the images are saved as jpegs 
before placing them in the document. We have found that in order to 
move between systems (RO and Win) that we put a directory alongside 
the document (generally named 'images') so that the path is easily 
followed. We used to just drag and drop from where ever the images 
were and it caused dramas if the path was one that Win or RO didn't 
recognise.
