5. How is the linking of an image different from an embedding?
Give a situation in which you would prefer to link an image.
Answer: Linking of an image means stores its reference instead of the
image itself, there by reduces the size of the document, because actual
image is saved only once as a separate file along with the document.
Embedding of an image means inserting (adding) the image in to the writer
document, in this case the size of file increased by the size of image file.
Linking is useful when it is required to insert multiple copies of the same
image in a document. It is beneficial to save the link of image instead of
inserting the image.
