documents with linked http images embedded

[thebad]

Hi Oo Collective,

I have a bunch of documents that have been created with images that
appear to be still linked to the original image on the web.

This causes a problem that any editing is _dreadfully_ slow, similarly
anything that causes the document to be re-rendered. (I am running 3.0.1
from the fedora 10 repository)

Is there any way to copy all the images into the document, and remove
the links. There doesn't seem to be any options to do this per images,
however I have a few hundred images that I would like to automatically
copy from the web into the document.

Cheers,

Tom

Yes there is:
the menu Edit|Links opens a dialog with (among others) that choice.

Kindest regards,
Cor

OO.o 3.0.1 exhibited a similar problem to this. A slide show created by
the photo album add-on links to images rather than copying them.  It
appears to open on my machine and looks fine, but when emailed, the copy
there has the framework for the images, but no images. The size of the
file was far too small to be anything but links.

I tried saving as pdf, ppt, odf, all exhibited this problem. But local
copy worked fine.

I have discovered that slide shows created with the extension and OO.o
3.1.0 exhibit exactly the behavior.

Can anyone tell me what settings to change so the "gentleman" will
create files I can share?

Warmest Regards

Yes:
o  Go to Edit | Links... .
o  Use click, Shift+click, and Ctrl+click as necessary to select the
relevant links.
o  Click Break Link.
o  Save your document.

I trust this helps.

I do not know why yours did that.

When I created a presentation with a background image
and images of computer screens on the slides, I did not
need the original image files.  I even used a thumb drive
to copy the presentation file, not the original image
to a different laptop and it worked file.  All the images
was there on the slides.  But I did not copy the original
images to the different laptop.

There must have been some way you inserted the image into
the presentation as a linked image, not an included image.
