Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if there is a tool I'm missing.

As I've been working on a score, I occasionally have forgotten to check
"link to file" when importing graphics. I would delete the graphic and
re-do it with "link to file" checked. I noticed that the saves were getting
slow, and then found that the file had grown to over 80MB -- the embedded
graphics (all photos) were not being removed. Doing a data check doesn't
help. Saving and re-opening the file and/or Finale doesn't help.

Is there a tool to remove these residual embedded graphics? I hadn't
noticed this before, but I do see that each piece created from the previous
carries forward these deleted graphics that appear to be embedded -- since
the compositions are based upon each other, I need to move them forward
from the previous one.

I tested a new file, imported a graphic, and then deleted it, and did a
data check to remove deleted items. The graphics are not removed, and the
file always grows to the size of the embedded graphics -- even if they're
otherwise completely deleted. Nothing can get rid of these for me.

Any help on this? Or someone who can confirm this behavior?

Many thanks,
Dennis
