Hi Steffen, thanks for your fast reply > Unfortunately my symbols are real pictures which must be turned into shapes. >>Pictures can be tricky.

Ok, well if that is the point - i include my pictures, the created png file and the shape file in on folder at my dia directory. The sizing of my images is no problem this works fine.

There is no image embedding so far. You could use relative >>path(es), however. Is there a feature request email address for future versions of dia? I also would like to include a signature of username, sourcefilename and date as a footer in my diagram. Like in visio :) Also the embedding images feature would be great for sharing diagram created by dia. > 3.
