William Overington Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I have noticed that the default in File | Document Setup for Image Placement Policy is "prefer linked". Two questions please. If one prepares a document and includes an image and the Image Placement Policy is set as "prefer linked" and then one produces a PDF, does the image get copied into the PDF at the time of producing the PDF or is the image in some way linked so that it is not actually in the PDF? If the image is a png, does it go into a PDF as a png or does producing a PDF change the format of the image? William Quote Until December 2022, using a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 in England.

mac_heibu Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Images within a PDF never are linked. They always are embedded. So, if you create PDF, linked images have to be loaded and processed during PDF creation. Inside a PDF, there exists no image format like png, jpg, tif, … Images are embedded (and modified) in a PDF native format.
