I am in the same boat as the OP. I have searched for a quick, simple solution to this for several years, always smiling at the discussion boards dismissal of it as a needed add-on... Just now decided the current solution remains to find someone with a copy of Word and use it for the 5 minutes it would take to do this. The 300 images in the documents I am working with are secondary to the text, but they are nice to have. The .odt file is occasionally emailed back and forth for editing of the text. The original file I am working with was created by others less technical and they embedded huge images. The production process will eventually led to an InDesign or Web based product but for now the ability to email the files back and forth is important. A single menu option to "Save As and Compress" to A. Small, B. Smaller or C. Smallest Image size would be awesome. But today I'll just take the files on a flashdrive to my neighbor next door... -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
