export to document does not display images

Question

Hi Team,

Recently noticed that in a confluence page, when i export a document, the exported document doesn't show the images. The image is marked as cross with red symbol.

I am using confluence version 3.5.13 and my machine is Windows machine. The document reader is Microsoft office. Is this a known bug?? Is there any alternative in which i can pull the images?

Side Note: Export to pdf does work FINE. Issue noticed only for Export to Doc.

Also for confluence version of 5.6.3, is this issue fixed?

Please let me know if you need any details further.

Thanks,
Monika

This "bug" has existed for a very long time.  If you desire to see the graphics on your pages, I suggest doing a PDF export.

Hope this alternative idea is helpful!
