- The problem is that the text {bml printer.bmp} is an RTF bitmap inclusion
- command (which is why you want it in there) - but Word assumes you really
- want the literal text "{bml printer.bmp}", and therefore escapes the whole
- thing when saving as RTF.
-
- You should get the result you want by inserting a bitmap using the Word menu
- commands and clicking on the "Link to file" checkbox when it asks you which
- bitmap to insert. When the resulting Word file is saved in RTF format,
- you'll get the correct RTF include command.
