            This appears to be the same problem as CONF-6246?

            Status update:
            I have taken a look at this, and the implementation calls for word to render the (x)html.

            The issue may be two fold where word attempts to get the image in a separate request (which subsequently fails due to authentication issues).

            To work around this I have written some code to test if we could embed the image as embedded base64 representation of the binary.

            <IMG SRC="data:image/gif;base64,RAAAtuhhx4dbgYKAAA7...more data....."
            

            This was unsuccessful. (see screenshot) - Word should (like IE/Firfox) render the embeeded image but it does not.

            The current work around is to "Edit in Word" -> and then save the document in word on your local hard drive.

            The next steps is to see if we can implement via WordML.

            That's the update.

            We see this same problem in Confluence 3.1.2. Images show up in the exported Word document as 'red X's' on the page.
