The MS Publisher default preference is to embed placed images. In fact, the MS Publisher author
must go to considerable lengths to link images to external files and then remove the embedded
image. The easiest way to do this is to use the "Take to a commercial printing service" feature of
MS Publisher's "Pack & Go" menu. This will extract all image files (except for certain vector based
files) and create links. The result, however is that the embedded images are still retained in the MS
Publisher document. Presumably, this is so one can use the MS Publisher "Graphics Manager" to
switch between linked and embedded for individual files. Happily, since the embedded images
are retained, the use of this feature has no impact on conversion with Pub2ID. It is possible, albeit
difficult, for the MS Publisher author to convert all images to external links and delete the
embedded image. To convert such a file with Pub2ID, the image library must be supplied with the
MS Publisher document otherwise all you will have upon conversion are low resolution previews.
Basically, Pub2ID works best with all images embedded; which is, coincidentally, the default
operation of MS Publisher.
