Hi Sivan_, 

Could you please provide a recipe and files for creating your Word document?

I have done the following steps:

1. create a graphic in Affinity Designer.
2. copy it and put it into a Word document with "copy items as SVG"
   
3. convert the SVG into a shape
   

The reason for converting the SVG into shape is compatibility issues with organizations that use old Office versions.

I don't believe this to be a bug, as far as I'm aware this is not supported. However, I've logged it for the developers to take a look at regardless in case we can do something to either support it, or make it known that it's not supported as appropriate.
