Default Compare and Merge issues with pictures

Setup: Microsoft Office Word 2003 (11.6502.6408) SP1

Scenario 1:
1. Created a document with an image (any format: JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG,
etc.) and saved it as Document1_1.doc
2. Resized image and saved document with name Document1_2.doc.
3. Closed all instances of Word
4. Opened Document1_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents
and performed merge with Document1_2.doc.

Problem 1: No image revisions created in the merged document.
Note: No revisions are also created for changes in other properties,
such as brightness, contrast, transparency, etc.

Scenario 2:
1. Made a copy of Document1_1.doc and renamed it to Document2_1.doc.
1. Opened Document2_1.doc and selected image and replaced it with
another image.
2. Saved updated document with the name Document2_2.doc
3. Closed all instances of Word
4. Opened Document2_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents
and performed merge with Document2_2.doc.

Problem 2: No image revisions created in the merged document.

Scenario 3:
1. Created a document with 3 images that follow one another (any
format: JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG, etc.) and saved it as Document3_1.doc
2. Deleted second image.
3. Saved updated document with the name Document2_2.doc.
4. Closed all instances of Word
5. Opened Document3_1.doc. Selected Tools\Compare and Merge Documents
and performed merge with Document3_2.doc.
6. Save document in WordML format with the name Document3_3.xml

Problem 3: Delete revision contains third picture inside. It should be
the second image. Inspect saved WordML file. Word ML content looks
strange.
Note: Try this with images that follow one another (image that follow
one another appear next to each other horizontally) and with images
that are separated with paragraphs (image that follow one another
appear next to each other vertically). Result is the same.


Question: Did anyone run across the described issues? Is there a quick
work-around? I do the merge operation programmatically through the Word
Interop assemblies on WordML files. I need it to track changes in a
document.
