If you copy and paste, you'll be pasting a link to the server where it is
stored. If you immediately unlink it, it will be embedded in the document.
But it is preferable (and easy) instead to right-click on the Web graphic
and use Save Picture As to save it to your HD. This gives you three
advantages: (1) if something happens to the document, you'll still have
access to the picture (even if it's long gone from the Web), (2) you can
easily insert it in other documents without having to copy/paste, and (3) if
you like, you can link to the file on your HD, which will reduce the file
size of your document (and if it's a template on which many documents will
be based, this can cause considerable space savings over time.

Is it possible to insert a picture from the web as a watermark without
saving
somewhere local first? Pretty much copy it and then paste as a watermark.

Thanks
