Ok you're right. I found the the autosave configuration.

Does KWord 1.1.1 re-renderizes when printing? Is it ?

Humm... Let me be more concise with an experience. I made a eps (Encapsuled 
Postscript) diagram with Dia and imported this one both KWord 1.1.1 and 
Staroffice 5.2. In the first one I did "Insert-->Picture-->Choose Image" and 
in the second one I did "Insert-->Image-->from File", and ask for both make a 
postscript file by printing to file. The two generated file :
- print_w_kword.ps
- print_w_staroffice.ps
I opened with a ps viewer and amplified by 4.0 and it shows clearly what I 
saw "bad printing quality" especially the font rendering. I put the two file 
attached. I continue to think KWord transformates my eps in a bitmap 
representation.

This feature is important to me cause I'm a Engineering Student and If I 
realize how to make it work right I can continue to use KWord.

Later I continue to test svg importing.

Again Thanks all.
