In order to have images insert consistently in a Word doc they need to be
processed to those specs - height, width, resolution, etc. - using graphics
software *first*. Word provides no control over any of that.

If you link to the files you can either replace the files in that same
location with new files that have been named the same or you can use the
Edit Links dialog to link to different files. Automating the task would
require VBA.

Thanks for the reply, but that's not exactly what I want to do. What I want
is to create a document with 2 overlapping, scaled images, say image A and
image B. I then can send that to the client.

Later, I need to create a new document, replacing image A with C and image B
with D and send that to a different client. I'll need to do it again with
images E and F, and then again and again.

In other words, I need to create the same document over and over again. I
was hoping that if I could link image A to file a.jpg and then replace a.jpg
with a different image with the same name.

I did figure out how to insert an image linked to the file and I found the
setting to force those links to update when printing. But until I printed,
the image showed the old one. How do I manually update those images,
preferably automatically?

Thanks,
