Ian,
I hope you make your OCR corrections on Trove and then copy and paste
the OCR'd text to your Legacy event note etc.
What file are you talking about? I mostly don't download the file for
the newspaper article or page. If I do, I use an image format and link
it to the Event.
The URL, newspaper etc is in the Source attached to the Newspaper event
or the relevant data field if it was a birth notice etc.

This is probably a general question.
Those Australian and NZ papers are made available via "Trove" and
"Papers Past".
Apart from confirming or obtaining dates, relationships, places etc
from the articles, I always transcribe the full text into plain-text
files, correcting bad OCR. And I always record with the transcribed
text, the URL and the newspaper name/issue/date and subject.
I'm wondering if I should attach those files in Legacy, and what is
the best way.
I don't research UK or USA newspapers.
