    I’ve wasted hours of my life, trying to insert an image in a word document without word compressing it, making it illegible, only to find out that it’s impossible. I can’t even imagine anything being worse at this point

      I never get these comments… I never had these problems in Word and I’m using Office since Office 2003. However what I did repeatedly see are users who, although Office has many possible workflows chose the most complex one and were then too stubborn to change

        Sure, i can’t rule out user error, especially since im not a word expert. But the “searching for an alternative workflow part” is the one that actually takes the most time.

        In the end, the “solution” that worked was to cut up the diagram and put it on multiple pages. Sure, it’s not elegant and maybe word had some built in features for this, but i couldn’t find them.
