Charts in Writer
Charts
copied from a Calc spreadsheet and pasted into a Writer document are,
by default, embedded objects. Unlike doing this in Microsoft Office,
only the relevant data for the chart is embedded. In Microsoft Office
copying and pasting a chart also embeds it, but if the Excel workbook
was 8 MB in size (not unrealistic for a spreadsheet) then each chart
pasted into a Word document would increase the Word document by 8 MB.
