Linked and Embedded Files
When importing bitmap, EPS or PostScript files, you can link or embed the
file into your document. A link is a connection between the document and
the original file.
Embedded
object
An embedded object is contained in your document. Once a file is
embedded, there is no longer a connection between it and the file
from which it came. Changes to the original file have no effect on
the embedded object.
Linked
When objects are linked, only a reference to the image file is stored
object
in the document. The image information remains in the original
image file. If the image file is changed, those changes will also
appear in your document. Since linking to a picture preserves the
original attributes of the image file, it is recommended for color
printing.
PostScript files often contain an optional preview graphic. When you link or
embed a PostScript file, the preview graphic will be displayed in your document.
If the PostScript file does not contain a preview, an “X” will be displayed
instead.
