External images can not be added via the drag-and-drop method. Use the Select Image dialog
instead (see below).
If you add an external image via the Source tab or via a script, and the URL doesn't have a file
extension, you have to add the filetype parameter to the URL manually. Specify the file
extension as its value, for example: ?filetype=pdf, or &filetype=pdf if it isn't the first
parameter. Note that the ampersand character needs to be encoded as &.
For information about referring to images in HTML or in a script, see "Resources" on page371.
Via drag-and-drop
The drag-and-drop method is a quick way to import one or more images into a template.
1. Look up the image file or image files on your computer using the Windows Explorer.

your computer. Click the Browse button to select a folder (or an image in a folder).
As an alternative it is possible to enter the path manually. You can give a local path
(e.g. C:\Images\Test.jpg) or use the "file" protocol. The complete syntax of a fully
qualified URL with the "file" protocol is:file://<host>/<path>. Note: if the
