Multiple copies of graphics in output
I'm not sure if this is an Outlook issue or a Word issue, but I've already
tried the Outlook forum, so I'll try he Sometimes, when I send a MailMerge email that contains graphics, some recipients view the email through a webmail account, and the graphics show up as attachments, rather than in the body of the text. That's OK, but what is not OK is that there may be two or three copies of the same graphic. I'll put two grahics on the page, but there may be four or five attachments. It just looks sloppy - multiple versions of the same image. Is there any way I can clean this up before I do the mail merge? Is Word storing multiple copies of some grahics internally in the document, and sending them all out? I can't do anything to make this predictably replicable, but it happens fairly regularly, and it seems that it happens to everyone, but I'm not sure, I haven't polled everyone. It's just that the few that I can look at are all the same. I'm using Office 2003. |

Multiple copies of graphics in output
Not sure this is relevant but nothing else I have tried affects this: if
you go to Word Tools-Options-general-Email options, is the HTML Filtering option set to None? What if you try Medium (or if it is set to Medium, try High) ? I do seem to get more spurious attachments when filtering is set to None, because I think Word is trying to send some of the "supporting files" it generates when it saves as HTML, uses additinal MIME parts to do so, and the client application is unlikely to understand what they are for. In that case, I guess you may also get additional copies of the images in some cases.
