Well Peter (Rule),
First make a copy of your document file to work on or back up the
original.
In Word 2000:
Edit > Links to display the Links dialog.
Select the graphics that you want.
Click Save picture in document.
Click OK.
Or
Tools > Options > View tab
Select Field codes.
Click OK.
Edit > Replace (Ctrl+H)
Remove the \d character from all your graphics links.
Tools > Options > View tab
Deselect Field codes.
Click OK.
File > Print Preview
Press Ctrl+A (Select All)
Press F9 (update fields)
Acknowledge all update requests.
Press Ctrl+S (Save).
Press Escape to return to the document.
Should include all in file.
Caution: file size could become mammoth and need to be compressed as
a ZIP file for distribution.
My recommendation, however, would be to create an Acrobat file and
distribute that instead, thereby maintaining the integrity of and
version control for your original Word document.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Michael

Subject: atw: Globally replace linked images with embedded images in
Word
Greetings all,
I have a largish Word file with heaps of linked
graphics.
I want to globally change the linked images into
embedded images; so that I can distribute the file as
1 (rather than having to include the images with the
file when distributed).
Can anyone give me a simple solution for this.
Cheers,
Pete
