Sure, i can’t rule out user error, especially since im not a word expert. But the “searching for an alternative workflow part” is the one that actually takes the most time.

In the end, the “solution” that worked was to cut up the diagram and put it on multiple pages. Sure, it’s not elegant and maybe word had some built in features for this, but i couldn’t find them.

I’ve wasted hours of my life, trying to insert an image in a word document without word compressing it, making it illegible, only to find out that it’s impossible. I can’t even imagine anything being worse at this point
