3.2. To insert an image

It is possible to insert images in contents. Different formats are supported:

[Note] Other formats

Other formats such as PDF or TIFF can be used as images but are not recommended because not necessarily compatible with all your publication formats.

  1. Click on menu Tables and images, then choose Images or Inline media depending on the case:

    Media

    To insert a simple image;

    Figure With Title

    To insert an image with title ;

    Clickable Image

    To insert an image containing hotspots;

    Drawing

    To insert an image editable with the editor of images integrated to Calenco (SVG format);

    Inline Media

    To insert an inline media or an image in the text.

  2. Set the cursor where to insert and click on icon to choose the image to integrate and set up its publication:

    [Note]

    Preferably specify a relative size (as a percentage of the available space). In general, adjusting the width is enough, as height is adjusted proportionally.

    [Note]

    By selecting the empty option in the Alignment or Vertical alignment menu, the image will be aligned with one of the three options set by default in the style sheet.

  3. Click on Choose image.

    [Note] Selecting the import language

    Don’t forget that images like contents:

    • are broken down by language,

    • can be filtered by tag for easy finding.

  4. Click on Upload a file in this workspace if this image is not yet in Calenco:

    [Important]

    Uploaded images will be associated with tags selected when uploading.

You can also upload an image in Calenco from the editor:

  1. Open the image to embed on your computer.

  2. Copy the image in the clipboard (right-click on Ctrl+C).

  3. Choose the place where to insert the image.

  4. Paste (Ctrl+V or Cmd+V for users on macOS) the image in the area for editing.

    [Note]

    The image is saved in the language of the document.

3.2.1. Searching for a missing image

Sometimes, the document references images but they are not loaded by the editor. These missing images look like this:

The most likely cause of this behavior is the absence of images in the target language when the translation document is returned (see What is sent for translation?).

Procedure 15. To easily find missing images:

  1. Click in the menu ToolsMissing images. The following dialog opens:

  2. Click on the image to find its location in the document.

  3. Sort the list of missing images by the order in which they appear in the document or by their name if necessary.
