Blocked rtf files cant convert pictures #90

I've been struggling with this for a few hours now and eventually found out that when your rtf has image(s) and is from another origine the rtf file may be blocked by your security settings. The image is somehow interpreted as 'code'.

The only way I found is by opening the rtf file with WordPad and not with MS Word.

When you unblock and save your rtf, the images will be converted correctly with RtfPipe.

My rtf files are all generated from another software and it's not possible to open each and every one of them to unblock and save them.

The question is, even though there are security risks, does anyone know how to disable this or bypass this?

Update:
It seems that unblocking is not the solution at all, when you unblock WordPad saves the image different.
