Error pulling in an image, pulling my hair out

I keep getting:
"Error while evaluating expression "do text from document(at='%s' % mymap)". invalid syntax (<string>, line 1)"

Format of my 'track changes' text:
do text
from document(at='%s' % mymap)

In Python:
mymap = os.getcwd()+'\\'+'file.png'

Renderer defined as:
renderer = Renderer('testTemplate.odt', d, 'result.odt', overwriteExisting=True)

I'm on windows 8.1 with appy 0.8.5. LibreOffice 4.2.1.1
iPython is my interpreter.

I've tried 100 different ways to write the track changes text. With or without the file extension, with and without string formatting, etc.

Please tell me what is going wrong. Thanks in advance!
