How can I tell if the pictures are linked or embedded?
Hello
I have been given a Word file with pictures that someone else wrote. How can I tell if the pictures are linked or embedded? I cant send the document via email if the pics are linked as the person on the other end willl have a Word file missing the pictures. So I need to identify the pictures that are linked but I cannot see a way to do this. Thanks for any help, Chrisso |

A rough and ready method is to press ALT+F9 - linked pictures will show an
