Default "Inline with text" objects don't draw inline with text.

I've got a doc (W2007) which has been created from a template.

Into the document I'm trying to add some objects (Visio, Excel, whatever -
same behaviour is seen), when I insert the object the very bottom left of the
object appears at the caret, the text to the right of the caret is moved to
the right, but only by the horizontal extent of the image: it is still on the
same line. This single line area where the text has been removed is the only
part of the object which is visible. The body of the image does not appear
but the bounding box indicates the size (as expected) over the top of all the
text above.

Setting (and resetting) the object properties through Position - In Line
with text, or via the Advance options in the Layout properties makes no
difference. The document option is set to insert objects in line.

This behaviour is not seen in documents generated by the standard template,
so it leads me to believe a problem with this particular template.

What am I missing?

Thanks...
