as an alternative to saving DDL of one story (which in my case is the
same as one chapter), i tried simply using the clipboard: copy the
story and paste it into the new Demy document.
that seems promising. text and embedded pix have appeared in the new
document. until i scroll to the end of the text and find it has
stopped short. just short of a 450K JPeg, as it happens -- is that
relevant? (as DDL, that story measures 3.2Mb in total, including its
embedded pix.)
i could, if nec in light of Martin's message, delete all the pictures,
do the DDL business, then place the pix again. would be tedious, but
at least every pic has a caption (as a paragraph in the text) to mark
its position.
of course i could cut&paste via clipboard in sections. but can i be
confident that chunks aren't missing?
