My jpegs and pictures will not show up in Word

[Guest]

All jpegs and imported pictures, even from emails do not show up in word. I
only get the black dots around the picture. When I print, the picture prints
out ok. How do I fix this problem?

In Tools > Options > View, make sure "Drawings" is checked and
"Picture placeholders" is not checked.
