The reason they were embedded as Visio images was so the users could
double click to edit them. My hopes were that I could find a method to
keep the Visio images in there (with the option of editing), but remove
the link or whatever is causing the multiple instances of Visio upon
opening the file.
That's just the nature of embedded objects, but... (see below)
If this is not possible I suppose I could try having them paste them in
there under a different format. Can you save the images as png using
Visio, or would I need a separate software?
I know next to nothing about the particulars of Visio; I've never used
it. But I do know in general that it is a vector graphics drawing
program. OOo Draw component is also a VG drawing program. It's not
inconceivable that the Visio drawings could be exported to another VG
format that both programs have in common, like SVG. (Draw can import SVG
with an optional plug-in). And then you could import the images into
Draw and resave in the native OOo format.
I'm not certain, but my guess is that would take care of a lot of the
resource usage issues if you can get it to work. Without a) having a
copy of Visio available to play with, and b) knowing precisely what your
drawings are like, it's impossible for me to say if that is a possible
solution, but it seems worth exploring.
Good Luck,
Rod
