Here's the test file: 0640.Foo_test.docx

Looks like this in Word:

The image comes from this gif file which I inserted into the document:  

Here's the PB log file (note the warning and error): 8053.PBB_5ba1a4e7fcad4ec38ad0d9d5e2792e17.log

Here's how the resulting resource looks in Logos:

Note that the image did load, but what's missing is all the text up to that point in the paragraph. I've tried this with longer documents with more text, and that appears to be the pattern: all the text in the present paragraph up to the image is omitted.

EDIT: Here's another example, even more wonky than the first:

In Word:

After building, in Logos:

See how the text gets shuffled around? This color-coded image shows it better:

Here's the PB document: 5557.Foo_test.docx

There were similar PB compiler errors the the log file posted above.

Hi Rosie,

i am surprised that text wrapping around an image works at all. In the past text wrapping around an image was forbidden (text wrapping had to be set to Top and Bottom). Maybe this is new with the Beta???

It's not really text wrapping. It's an in-line image.

It kind of reminds me of the problem Tes was having when his Amharic text was coming out all jumbled.
