When inserting an image from a file into a LibreOffice Writer document, what is the difference between 'Insert' and 'Link' options?
Answer: When you insert an image directly, a copy of the image is embedded within the document file, increasing its file size. When you link an image, only a reference path to the original image file is stored in the document, which keeps the file size small but can break the link if the original image file is moved or deleted.
Solution
Embedding increases document size and ensures portability, whereas linking keeps file size small but depends on the original file path remaining unchanged.
