cannot see clip art in word document

[Sandee]

I am using Windows XP and MS Office 2003. In Word, I cannot see the clip art
I copy or insert on the page, although when I do a "print preview" I can see
it. I do not have the "show picture placeholder" selected in
Tools:Options:View.

In Word, if you're working in Normal view, switch to Print Layout view
(View | Print Layout), because objects that are formatted as "float over
text" (Word 97) or *not* "inline with text" (Word 2002 and 2003) are not
visible in Normal view. In Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab |
check the "Drawings" box and uncheck the "Picture placeholders" box |
Print tab | check the "Drawing objects" box | OK. If neither of the
prevous suggestions fixes the problem, then try reducing the hardware
acceleration setting in Start | Control Panel | Display | Advanced |
