Converting a Smart ClipArt image to an ordinary image

When you insert a Smart ClipArt image into a Web document, Namo WebEditor saves the original image data in the document itself, so that you can always edit the image later without needing to open another file. As a result, the file sizes of documents containing Smart ClipArt images can be significantly larger than those of similar documents that only use bitmapped images (which are always stored separately). If you need to minimize the file size of a document that includes Smart ClipArt images, and you do not plan to edit the images in the future, you can save space by converting the images to ordinary, bitmapped images.

To convert a Smart ClipArt image to a bitmapped image
  1. Right-click the image, point to Image, and then click Convert to Standard Image.
  2. Click Yes to confirm converting the image.
  3. In the File name box, enter the desired file name for the bitmapped image.
  4. Click the Save as type box and select the desired bitmap image format: GIF, JPEG, or PNG.
  5. Click Save.
