Can't preview templates

Whenever I create a new document from a Word template (*.dot), the preview
window in the templates box shows 'Preview not available'.

Any idea why this is?
 
The reason is that "Save preview picture" is cleared in the File |
Properties dialog box for the template.

Usually, keeping "Save preview picture" unchecked is a good thing.
Checking it for a template means that the setting will be transferred
to each document created from the template--and substantially increase
its size on disk.

Thanks. I'll leave it alone.
