Just renamed the .DOCX file to .ZIP then extracted, leaving OpenOffice out of it. The image was in the word/media folder.

Still need OpenOffice for the .doc files though.

Instead I get a folder named "ObjectReplacements". That folder contains one file Object1 (no extension). So does this extraction method work for photos only? Then it is easier to save the file as html. Any idea how to extract vector images from word docs?

It's very possible to get similar tutorials on such simple operations from different people. The solution is not new and it is not rocket science. Especially people who worked a long while in the OpenOffice.org community knew this trick since years now. Thanks for pointing out Solveig's tutorial. I haven't seen it. It's a good one. Hi JZA,
