Picture doesn't show except in Print Preview

[OldManEd]

I used Insert-->Picture to insert a jpeg image. All I see is the outline
(size) of the image. It only shows in Print Preview. Is there any way to
make it visible while I am creating a template?

In Tools > Options > View, check the option "Drawings" and uncheck the
option "Picture placeholders".

There is a separate "Drawing objects" option on the Print tab of the same
dialog, which you'll find is already checked (as indicated by the fact you
can see the picture in Print Preview).

So where is this in Word 2007.

I know this is an old newsgroup with name 'new users' but by now you should
assume that 'new' means Word 2007!!!!\

Go to Office button > Word Options > Advanced, scroll down to the "Show
document content" section, and check "Show drawings and text boxes on
screen" and uncheck "Show picture placeholders".

There is no reasonable way to make assumptions about what version of Word
any poster is using. In fact, it isn't reasonable to assume that someone
posting in this group is really a new user -- many people pay no attention
at all to the group names. If you want information specific to Word 2007,
please say that you have Word 2007.
