Hello Christian, thanks for your reply. That was the kind of easy trick I was looking for :) It worked perfectly for a simple test-presentation. But unfortunately it didn't work with the other presentation with content. It seems for me that the links in the document are still handled as absolute paths and are never changed. You mentioned that libreoffice uses relative paths when pictures and documents are located on the same filesystem. I tried a lot around since I have lots of symbolic links on my filesystem. Maybe they are causing this behaviour. But I still haven't understood why it works for one document and not for the other. Do you know if libreoffice falls back to relative paths when the file were once separated on two filesystems and are then put onto the same filesystem again? Thanks a lot Greetings Michael Just for Information: I'm using Debian squeeze and LibreOffice 3.3.1 (OOO330m19 (Build:8) tag libreoffice-3.3.1.2 ) -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Moving-linked-pictures-in-Impress-from-one-directory-to-another-tp2916339p2920678.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+help@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
