Bug ID: 161307
Summary: Proposal to provide the Scibus Collect for Output
function for storing copies of embedded images in a
single location.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.6.4.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Writer doesn't automatically keep track of the original files of embedded
images.
Bug 156840 "Add source path as property to embedded image file" was closed as
resolved, but storing the Path/file or hyperlink name may not be reliable when
working with more than one computer.
May I propose that a function similar to "Collect for output" in Scribus be
provided? This stores a copy of images and all other auxiliary files in the
directory structure that contains the document (sla) file.
Usage could be different because, unlike Writer, Scribus doesn't embed images
but calls the files when printing or exporting. Perhaps surprisingly, the file
name isn't indicated in Image or Image Frame properties. As the OP of Bug
156840 hinted, there can be several subtly-different versions of a given image.
