    Existing Word 2007 documents are opened in compatibility mode in Word 2013.

    Storing or converting it to the 2013 format moves an image to a strange position.

    The image that is moved is embedded in a table that is part of a Position Frame.

    Obviously the ckeckbox of the "layout in table cell" is engaged by the conversion process.

    Afterwards this Option cannot be unchecked in the Word 2013.

    Is there a solution to preserve all the 2007/2010 documents when converting to 2013??

    The customer wants to use the old document!! What's the solution for that?

    The easiest solution, of course, is not to convert the file at all. You can leave it in Word 2007 compatibility mode.
