NOT reproducible with reporters sample.doc "AOO 4.0.1 – German UI / German locale [Rev. 1524958 2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic” 4.0 User Profile used for all predecessor versions.

My test:
1. Open "bacon2.doc" from LibreOffice Start Center (I currently do not have 
   WORD available)
2. Click pig image
3. <control+c> for 'copy'
4. From AOO Start Center open blank new Writer document
5. Click into new Writer document
6.  <control+v> for 'paste'
   As expected picture appears

Additional info:
----------------
(a) I think we would already have heard if there would be a general picture 
    copy problem
(b) That's a strange hyperlink syntax I see in screenshot: should show only
    slashes instead of that slash and backslash mix or whatever
 


@slacka:
"PASS" means what? for now 
"tested with other Windows application. " means what? You copied from those applications to Writer? Or from "bacon2.doc" to there?

In between I found a PC with MS WORD 2010 (Starter)

Reproducible with "AOO 4.0.1 – German UI / German locale [Rev. 1524958 2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit)", “historic” 4.0 User Profile used for all predecessor versions

My test:
11. Open "bacon2.doc" from LibreOffice Start Center (I currently do not have 
   WORD available)
12. Click pig image
13. <control+c> for 'copy'
14. From AOO Start Center open blank new Writer document
15. Click into new Writer document
16.  <control+v> for 'paste'
   Bug: Placeholder with strange source link as reported

Additional info:
(c) Paste works fine to DRAW
(d) Paste to Calc also broken, nothing appears
(e) worrying: in step 16 if I use menu 'Edit -> Paste special' I get offered
    HTML + GDI + Bitmap, but GDI + Bitmap will not work.
(f) HTML? that looks like a serious misunderstanding of WORD clipboard contents?
(g) I also see the problem with a self created minimumsample.doc
(h) not  a new problem and not lmited to AOO, all the same with LibO 3.5
(i) so I ESTIMATE that the problem already started before AOO 3.4
(k) looks wevy similar to "Bug 14613 - problem with pictures copied
    from msword, slash/backslash issue". DUP for now

@Rainer Bielefeld 

By PASS, meant that I copied from Word and pasted into those applications. Writer and Calc are the only two that fail. Thanks for escalating this interoperability issue.
