From the dictionary and confirmed here:
--------
*Important:* The crop command cannot be used on a
referenced image. Doing so will cause an
execution error.
---------
Also, today, I can't copy a referenced image?
Again missing something simple...
command createEmbedAndCrop
Create image "gems"
set the loc of img "gems" to the loc of img "theImage"
# img "theImage" is referenced, now displayed in original format/rect
-- set the imagedata of img "gems" to the imagedata of image "theImage"
# doesn’t work
-- set the text of img "gems" to the imagedata of image "theImage"
# also doesn't work
# from the dictionary. Also doesn’t work:
put image "theImage" into image "gems"
# this works, but have no data in the image "gems" :
crop image "gems" to rect of grc "newCrop"
end createEmbedAndCrop
Hmm.... why does this fail:
put image "theImage" into image "gems"
Dictionary.

Imagedata:
*Tip:* To copy the information in an image at full resolution,
regardless of whether its height and width have been changed, use
a statement like the following:
put image "Full Resolution" into image "Copied Image"
------------
Well I discovered it's because image "fullResolution" is referenced?
I scanned thru the IDE stacks in project Browser, looking for the
"Import as Control --> image file"
Which should have the method for imported an embedded image.... But I could not
find it

There's a crop command to allow you to do it in a script.
