The Fm12 package feature includes all the files in the book and all the images in an images subfolder. It does not get images referenced from an adjacent folder (I have one called Resources that includes \images with the master page images). I normally use FrameScript and the ArchiveFM.FSO free script at http://framescript.com/framescript-6-script-library/ It zips up all the files and images in use, maintaining their folder structure. For example, if you have one image in a folder on your desktop, and everything else is 19 subfolders down, it will get all 20 levels to make sure it includes that one orphan. This feature is very useful for collecting all the referenced images that are used, and not the rest. I run ArchiveFM.fso once to get a clean copy, then I delete all images in the original folder and copy the archived ones into the images folder - this way I delete all the unused images but keep all those that I am actually using.
